I honestly don't know about that one. I just think their equipment doesn't last as long. I've owned 2 dozen cars that never had brake fluid replacements with very high mileage lol
None ever had brake related failures. But you could cook the brakes very easily with that old fluid in there.
It seems to always be the hybrids with their electric pressure accumulator units failing.
