Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
If the brake fluid isn't labeled in accordance with the regulations, the brake fluid may unintentionally be used in a vehicle brake system that is incompatible with that type of fluid, affecting brake performance and increasing the risk of a crash.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
