I got a service message stating my brake fluid is due. What is this fluid and is it covered under the 4/50k warranty?

It's the fluid that flows in your brake lines to push against your brake pads. Not covered under warranty unless you have maintenance

What if you are under the 4/50k plan?

Yes $0 cost. All my oil changes and everything has been free so far. It expires this year though.

Then yes it's covered since it's maintenance related.
