The Importance of Regular Brake Fluid Service
Brake fluid is the lifeblood of your vehicle’s braking system, transmitting the force from your brake pedal to the brake components that stop your car. However, brake fluid can become contaminated with moisture over time, which may reduce its efficiency and could lead to potential braking issues. Regular brake fluid changes and flushes are not just recommended—they’re essential to maintaining your vehicle’s braking performance.
At KS Autocare, we offer a comprehensive range of brake fluid services, including brake fluid checks, changes, and flushes. Whether you’ve noticed signs of contaminated brake fluid, such as a spongy brake pedal or discolored fluid, or you’re simply following your vehicle’s recommended service intervals, our team is here to help. We approach every service with meticulous care, ensuring that your brakes are not only responsive but also reliable every time you drive.

“Great service. Clean facility. Had an oil change. Was in and out in no time. No pressure from trying to up-sell other services. I’ll be back. I came back. Brought in my son’s 2007 Impala with 120k mileage to fix big fluid leaks and make the vehicle reliable. I spent some big $$ but they fixed it WITHOUT rebuilding the car. Very pleased.” — Mark LaPonte
