They did FULL SERVICE, my bill says they Flushed out all the fluids & re-filled
This is what i had serviced on my car at 90K. My Head Gasket had a leak, I get it repaired as soon as possible, Changed Timing Belt & Tensioner. Flushed & refill ALL fluids, NEW Brake Pads & Rotors FRNT & REAR. HAD a Emission Tune-up. Had BOTH control arms replaced, Wheel Bearings repaired & Ball joints my total cost was & $7,500.00 estimated .

I took my car to the shop, to have the mechanic check my brakes. He said it was fine, but when i told him go & test drive it you can tell. So he said it must be air in the system, so he had this machine that took out all the air. Till today there was a slight difference but not that much pressure. Its so scary when i brake, i cant tell if its braking or not.

unless you have a brake fluid leak, i'm willing to bet the reason your fluid is not at full (which it should be) is because they didn't completely press the pistons back in place, thus giving you less pedal travel before the piston fully engages.
that and the slide pins would cause this problem.
