At Lou Fusz Subaru St. Peters, we know that your vehicle’s braking system is critical for your safety. Brake fluid is a vital component that ensures your brakes respond promptly and effectively. Over time, brake fluid can absorb moisture and become contaminated, leading to decreased braking performance and potential damage to brake components. That’s why we offer specialized brake fluid exchange services to keep your Subaru’s braking system in top condition.
Brake fluid, also known as hydraulic fluid, maintains multiple components of your vehicle’s braking system. Even if the brake pedal was pushed all the way down, if there was no brake fluid your car would be unable to stop.
Brake fluid can easily be checked under the hood. Most of the time the brake fluid is stored in a translucent reservoir so you can see the level of the liquid without opening the container. The reservoir usually sits near the back of the engine compartment in front of the brake pedal. The color of the brake fluid is ideally light and clear. If it isn’t, then the fluid is dirty and will need to be switched. The reservoir should also have a “full line” label. If the brake liquid drops under the line, the fluid needs to either be topped off or changed. Reduced brake fluid can also be a sign that the brake lines are getting worn down and need some maintenance.
Our team of certified Subaru technicians is trained to perform comprehensive brake fluid exchanges using high-quality, Subaru-approved brake fluid. During the service, we completely flush the old, contaminated fluid from your braking system and replace it with fresh fluid. This process ensures that your brakes function at their best, providing you with reliable stopping power and enhanced safety.
Several signs indicate your Subaru might need a brake fluid exchange. If you notice a spongy brake pedal, reduced braking effectiveness, or it’s been more than two years since your last brake fluid change, it’s time to schedule an appointment. Regular brake fluid exchanges are essential for maintaining the efficiency and reliability of your braking system.
