CADILLAC BRAKE FLUID EXCHANGE SERVICE
Brake systems include many parts that stop your vehicle. Your brake system uses hydraulic fluid designed for your vehicle. Hydraulic fluid transfers force into pressure, amplifying the force from the brake pedal into the brake calipers, pads, drums, and rotors.
Since brake fluid is an important performance and safety feature, the liquid is regulated by many standards. Brake fluid will eventually go bad because it absorbs moisture.
Major Benefits to Regular Brake Fluid Exchange
Brake fluid has a life that depends on operating conditions. Many factors can contribute to bad brake fluid, such as higher humidity, harsh operating environments, and the quality of the fluid itself. We recommend brake fluid exchange service at specified service intervals found in your owner’s manual. Brake fluid requires regular exchange because water in the brake lines will lower the boiling point of the brake fluid, causing stopping power to diminish.
As your vehicle experiences reduced stopping power, the distance required to stop increases, threatening safety. Other consequences of bad brake fluid include internal corrosion on critical braking system parts, such as the brake lines, calipers, and master cylinder.
There are major benefits to regular brake fluid exchange:
- Protects Braking System Parts – New fluid lacks the water that causes corrosion
- Stopping Power – Old fluid can reduce stopping power versus new brake fluid
- Safety – New brake fluid provides more safety versus old contaminated fluid
Many vehicle owners simply fill brake fluid when it gets low over time, compromising brake system performance. The only way to ensure brake system quality is to have your brake fluid exchanged at the specified service intervals by a certified technician. Drivers operating in harsh conditions will want to consider more frequent brake fluid exchange service. Cable Dahmer Cadillac has many certified technicians ready to provide your vehicle with a brake fluid exchange. Brake fluid exchange service includes a free inspection of your entire braking system to ensure peak performance.
