Brake fluid low every 100 miles

Asked by James Jun 25, 2020 at 12:41 AM about the 2010 Chevrolet Malibu LTZ FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2010 malibu LTZ low on brake fluid every 100 miles or so, the
reservoir is empty, I refill it, and the cycle continues...Also noticed a bit of fluid
under car on left rear side when parked for a couple days in the same spot.
Possibly brake fluid? How do I figure out what the repair is?

Find the leak ad fix it. Probably a leaking wheel cylinder. You know where to start looking.

maybe a rubber or metal line has rusted and leaking. Crawl under to check. Any garage can make the repair.

All you have to do is put 2 and 2 together. Where you see it LEAKING on the ground is where you have a leak. Now you just have to fix it . Make it stop leaking.
