What's the Nissan Versa brake fluid type?

The Nissan Versa uses dot 3 brake fluid. A non-compressible substance that is contained within the brake lines, brake fluid provides the force created when the brake pedal is pressed. It is necessary to drain and replace brake fluid periodically because it absorbs moisture from the air and degrades over time.Braking systems are susceptible to wear and tear, as with anything that requires daily use. Materials on all the moving parts in the brake system can break off with use, which can get into the fluid in the hydraulic system. Moisture also can get into the system, which creates rust that can break off into the fluid as well.
