WHY YOU SHOULD SERVICE YOUR BRAKE FLUID

There is an increasing awareness of the dangers of water and corrosion producing contaminates.  Brake fluid contaminated by moisture dangerously lowers the boiling point of the fluid to the point that, even under ordinary condition, your brakes could get hot enough to cause brake fluid to boil causing vapor to form in the brake system. The vapor in compressible, causing a low or no brake pedal. Moisture gets into the fluid because conventional brake fluid is hydroscopic (it has a magnetic attraction for moisture which it absorbs from the atmosphere).  In the vehicle, moisture is absorbed through the brake master cylinder reservoir and permeable brake hoses.  As a result the moisture along with the steel lines, rubber hoses, cast iron, aluminum and brake fluid temperature that can reach 450 to 500 degrees; causes electrochemical reaction that makes the brake fluid so acidic that it can result in early failure of brake components.  Brake fluid contamination has become so much of a concern of some major car manufactures that they have added it to their required maintenance.  Failure to change your vehicle brake fluid can result in very costly repairs, if you have ABS type brakes, component failure can run you into thousands!! So don't delay in having our skilled technicians perform this service for you.

Note:  Do not use a bottle of Brake Fluid that has had the lid left off.  Remember the fluid is Hydroscopic and will already be contaminated!
