I needed an immediate oil change after my cross country road trip from Pennsylvania. The attendant (Marc, I think) asked if I needed anything else looked at, and I mentioned that my brakes have been acting wonky for awhile. When I picked it up after the oil change, the attendant showed me that my fluids were way past the expiration dates by explaining and showing me the colors (what my fluids were and what they were supposed to look like). I went home and did my own internet research, which reinforced what he had told me. I took in my car the next day for a transmission fluid and brake fluid change. My brakes were back to normal, and my AC was working flawlessly when I picked it up. I've taken my car to many different auto service centers and no one had ever pointed out my fluids before. They would comment that I had enough fluid in my car, but nothing about the color and age. Maybe this is something every car owner should know, but I certainly did not. Thanks Quality Car Care!
