Brake Fluid Exchange Service

CHEVROLET BRAKE FLUID EXCHANGE SERVICE

When you drive your Chevrolet car, truck, van, crossover, or SUV anywhere, you’ll eventually need to make the vehicle slow down and stop. Your brake system does this important safety task for you. The brake system is fairly complex with several vital components that work together to send the stopping force into the brake rotors to stop your vehicle as needed. The brake system includes a pedal, lines, master cylinder, calipers, pads, and rotors or drums. The blood of the brake system is brake fluid. Brake fluid is a hydraulic liquid that will not compress under intense pressure unless it has become contaminated. This makes brake fluid the perfect liquid to transfer powerful forces through your brake system to slow down your vehicle. However, brake fluid has one problem: it absorbs water and eventually loses its ability to transfer stopping power adequately.

SIGNS THAT YOU HAVE CONTAMINATED BRAKE FLUID

Brake fluid absorbs water and its boiling point reduces with the introduction of this moisture contamination. When water contaminates the brake fluid, it will boil and create areas in the brake system that compress. Since the brake system requires a fluid that does not compress, this compression is a major problem for your ability to stop the vehicle. Here are the common signs that you have contaminated Brake Fluid and need to schedule your next Brake Fluid Exchange Service at Feldman Chevrolet of New Hudson:

Brake pedal presses to the floorboard without slowing the vehicle down
Softer or harder feel in the brake pedal

Brake system warning light is on
Pulsation in the brake pedal
Vehicle pulls to one side while braking
Brakes get stuck
