Brake Fluid Replacement Could Save Your Life says Cal's Auto Pros in Escondido CA

"Not replacing your motor vehicle's brake fluid as stipulated by the manufacturer could cost you your life or those of your loved ones," warned Escondido, CA's leading professional auto repair mechanic

Irving, TX (prHWY.com) September 12, 2011 - "Not replacing your motor vehicle's brake fluid as stipulated by the manufacturer could cost you your life or those of your loved ones," warned Escondido, CA's leading professional auto repair mechanic and motor vehicle brake fluid replacement specialist and owner of Cal's Auto Pros, Calvin Brown.

"Brake fluid replacement rarely ever seems to top a vehicle owner's priority list - oil changes, car washes, and even fuel injection cleaning are more common than brake fluid replacement," said Brown, who operates his auto brake replacement business from 1179 North Escondido Blvd. Suite B, Escondido, CA. 92026.

"However, if you have been wondering why you should ever replace your brake fluid, here's why you should.: The average motorist, whether driving a car, truck, or van - for instance, will use his brake 75,000 times every 10,000 miles. Brakes are heavily used parts in any vehicle, and they are also what will save your life during most potential crashes," he explained.

Brown further said that if you get your brakes checked, chances are that your car won't pass the brake fluid test, because more than half of the cars tested usually fail as most are over 10 years old and have never had their brake fluid replaced.

"With brake fluid replacement being one of the most neglected service areas on most vehicles, it poses even greater danger to life and property," noted Brown.

The real reason why most brake fluid replacements should be done on a regular basis, he argued, is because brake fluid can become contaminated with water over the years.

"In fact, most brake fluid will actually start absorbing moisture from the air as soon as your car drives off the dealership lot. Contaminated brake fluid means that there is a higher chance that your brakes may malfunction, and result in an accident," he said.

Another reason for failed brakes, according to Brown, is due to its heavy usage and which usually contributes to brake fluid temperature rising to the point o boiling.

"This usually causes the lowering of the brakes ability to quickly and safely stop your vehicle, and especially when used heavily in hot weather, the brake fluid could boil and this is usually reason enough to have your brake fluid replaced without delay," said Brown.

Contaminated and boiled brake fluid, according to Brown are two good reasons to have your brake fluid changed. Why? They usually lead to sudden brake failure. Therefore, he recommends that vehicle operators, once every 24 to 48 months, get their local mechanic to check their braking system and replace the brake fluid.
