Low Brake Fluid

stroked16 · Sep 25, 2017

Had a few dummy lights come on over the past few days. 2016 6.7L 22k miles.

Traction Control needs servicing
ABS Lights
Low Brake Fluid

Checked brake fluid reservoir. It was at minimum level. I topped it off and so far, no more dummy lights. Can't figure out how I lost so much fluid as I have zero leaks.

How worn are your brake pads and rotors?

Yep. Everyone thinks oh it's low, let me "top it off."
Brake fluid does not just get topped off. Level goes down as pads wear. Somewhat of a "indicator."
If pad thickness is fine and you're still having to add fluid, you have a more serious problem, and should get it checked out.
Brakes are life and death.

I'll have to look at them. No noises but I'll be sure to check them out. I've never had a vehicle burn through brakes in 22k miles but stranger things have happened.
