Dealer is recommending brake fluid flush during 30000 mile service. Anyone have it done at this point? Seems kind of early to me.

I traded my 2014 with 55000 and never did a thing to my brakes and they were still good at trade in...

I have never flushed or changed the brake fluid in anything. My wifes Durango we bought new had 180,000 miles on it when we sold it and the brakes were flawless. I did pads twice on the front and rotors once, pads once on the rear and turned the rotors. No calipers, no lines.

I was having rear brake problems on my 2016 2500 with a 6.7 Cummins. The calipers were sticking. First rr then a month later trouble again. The dealer said it was the lr and they need to replace it, as well as flush the brake fluid. He said back in 2006 the properties of the brake fluid for some manufacturers was changed and the fluid needs to be flushed every 20,000 miles. I can not find anything in the owners manual. I thought that was funny seeing that I only have a little over 20,000.
