Coolant and brake fluid levels need to be checked about twice per year according to most mechanics. If you have an issue with your brake fluid such as leaks, you may need to replace the brake fluid reservoir or at least have your mechanic check it to repair.

Your brake levels can be checked by locating the brake reservoir. This is typically on the driver's side of your vehicle, but if you find yourself amiss, then you can look at your owner manual to find the exact location.

Mechanics should check your brake fluid more often if you have a heavy foot. This is because you probably press down often on brakes using more of the fluid.
