In my 2011 Nissan Alitma, the manual said to change the brake fluid once a year. Really? Why not once a month? What's it going to hurt?
Here is a very informative video on changing your brake fluid from an experiencedd Toyota master mechanic.

You're kidding once a month. Three years is probably overkill. I have it changed when it needs new pads and rotors.

Good one! Yeah just as I thought, complete overkill. I don't keep cars 15 or even 10 years.
