So no one is denying that changing brake fluid is a necessary, routine maintenance item, but regardless, the fact of the matter is, “normal” car manufacturers and dealerships never talk about it or bring it up. That’s a fact. I’m not a serious mechanic. Only a shade tree mechanic. But, I am a fairly technical gearhead and a car enthusiast since before I could drive. I’ve owned Buick, Oldsmobile, MG, Mazda, Nissan, and Infiniti before I got my first BMW and joined the BMW enthusiast crowd at the age of 44. My parents owned Fords, Chevys, Pontiacs, Mercurys, and Buicks. I had never once heard anyone talk about changing brake fluid in all those years, including my gearhead dad or his gearhead buddy who worked on cars with him. My impression is this is a pretty European car owner topic. I think I can pretty safely guarantee Toyota Camry and Honda Accord owners who are doing well to get their oil changed on a regular basis are not ever thinking about having their brake fluid changed, much less doing it every two or three years.
