Constant Velocity Joints Inspect all rubber boots for signs of cracks, tears, or splits. Inspect underneath of your car for any indication of grease splatter in the areas of constant velocity joint boots, outboard and inboard locations; grease splatter is an indication of boot and/or clamp damage. Brake Fluid Under normal circumstances, your vehicle should not use up brake fluid rapidly. However, expect the level of the brake fluid to slowly fall as you put more mileage on your vehicle and the brake pads wear. Check the brake fluid at least once a year. You can do this by looking at the fluid level in the plastic reservoir on the master cylinder. (See The Engine Types earlier in this chapter to locate the master cylinder.) The fluid level should be at or near the MAX mark. RWARNING Brake fluid is toxic. If brake fluid contacts eyes, flush eyes with running water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately. 245
