EVENT_SUMMARY
Your vehicle's brake master cylinder has a rubber seal that could be damaged if you use brake fluid that doesn't contain special lubricating polymers. This could cause brake fluid to leak into the brake booster.
RISK_ASSESSMENT
If brake fluid leaks into the brake booster, it could change how your brake pedal feels and eventually affect how well your brakes work, making it more likely to be involved in a crash.
RESOLUTION_PROTOCOL
The dealership will replace the damaged seal with a new one at no cost to you. This service is free and will be performed at your earliest convenience.
