Good morning all,
When I returned home from work this morning I noticed a small puddle of fluid under the passenger side front tire area of my wife’s Bronco. The puddle was about the size of a half dollar. Upon closer inspection I noticed what appeared to be, in my best guess, Brake fluid at the bottom of the coil spring where the shock comes out.
I have googled and not found a like instance. So upon further inspection I note that the brake fluid is full to the MAX line. There is no brake fluid in the engine bay that is leaking. There is no spray or leaks anywhere else I can find. When I was giving it a thorough review I also noticed some of the same fluid at the bottom of the shock itself. I don’t see any fluid anywhere else. The leak is still leaking all be it a very very slow drip. Like one drop every 10 minutes. I had my wife depressed the brake pedal multiple times while I was underneath with no further or different leaking observed
We are still under warranty so I am not looking for a fix per-say, but I want to know if this is an issue with the shock/resovoir or the brake system. I have included a few pictures.
