2011-07-19 After a brake flush done at this store service area.
2011-08-04 Vehicles brakes completely seized and locked up. Patrol vehicle towed to store. Store reports back there has been a contamination of the brake fluid that they had put in our agencies vehicle. And the store in question had been the last to handle said vehicle. Store manager states that the full ABS and Brake system is damaged and he will do me a quote for repair. I cannot believe we take a vehicle to there organization for a $62.99 Brake Flush. And they put  contaminated brake fluid in vehicle and expect our organization to pay $4500 to $5000 to replace and repair it all and the ABS. There is
something seriously wrong when something like this happens.
They have written my vehicle off Suv completely.

I misread the OP report.  It was not 1 day, it looks more like 16 days.  I apologize for that error.

My question still stands however.  What the was the brake system contaminated with?

What the heck was the contamination they put in that destroyed the entire brake system in one day.

I want to make sure to avoid that whatever it is.  Did they tell you ?
