Brake Fluid Cap Warping? Anyone else?
Has anyone else experienced the Brake Fluid cap warping? I've gone through two now and while it's a the dealership getting a whole list of stuff fixed I'm having them look at this.
You can look at it and see where it's warping along with some brake fluid residue. Just wondering if anyone has this problem with their rig?
I've got a 2004.5 Dodge Ram 2500 600 Cummins 4x4

No one has had this problem with their trucks? As stated this is my second one to go through and I hardly EVER tow anything...

I am surprized there hasn't been some response to this question. I have read before on here about some guys drilling a small pin hole in the cap to relieve pressure. Apparently it was/is a common problem for some. As far as I can tell, there has been no problem with mine.........but I do remember reading about that before. Hopefuly somebody will chime in soon with more input. Good luck.

Duhhhhhhh I was very tired when I typed that! I had power steering pump cap on my mind. And, he was referring to brake fluid cap. Please disregard my first post!
