What Does Brake Fluid Do?

“Brake fluid” is a term you hear very often in the car maintenance world. However, do you know what it does and how it works?

Watch as our tech, Liam, shows you where to access your brake fluid, and explain how it works! Brake fluid is essential for your vehicle to function properly. If you can’t brake properly, it is extremely unsafe. When you press down on the brake pedal, brake fluid applies force to your actual brakes so that they stop the vehicle. Without brake fluid, your foot wouldn’t have enough force to put the vehicle to a complete stop. If you have any issues with your brakes or brake fluid, make an appointment at Supreme Tire and Automotive as soon as possible so we can get you back out on the road safely!
