Brake Fluid Exchange
The hydraulic fluid that runs through your braking system is intended to minimize friction, and therefore it must withstand high heat. The majority of vehicles use Glycol-Ether based fluids that absorb moisture from the atmosphere, and can then cause corrosion, rust, and structural damage. For this reason, you need to have your brake fluid periodically flushed and replaced entirely with fresh fluid (called a brake fluid exchange.)

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get my brake fluid changed?
Most manufacturer's recommend this service be completed every 3 years. It may be hard to keep track, but the good news is that all Roda client records (digital inspections, estimates, invoices, and services) are stored in your personal Virtual Garage making it easy to track and receive reminders about basic maintenance.
Since this is only an occasional service, what happens if I don’t get my brake fluid exchanged?
Expensive larger repairs, and potential imminent safety concerns. Build-up in your brake fluid lines can cause your car to be less responsive when braking, and can also cause damage to the master cylinder or calipers that your brake system relies on. These components can be costly to replace, making this preventative maintenance service a valuable and cost-saving investment.
