The recommended brake fluid type for the 2013 Ram 1500 is dot 3. When it comes to changing the brake fluid in a vehicle, the process can be straightforward or more complex depending on whether you need to bleed the brakes. If you only need to top up the fluid, locate the intake port under the car's hood, unscrew the cap, check the fluid level between the MIN and FULL lines, top it up close to the FULL line, and then reseal the cap. For bleeding the brakes, start by lifting the car with a jack and removing the tires. Beginning at the back, find the bleeder valve on the wheel, attach rubber tubing, open the valve, press the brake pedal slowly, collect the fluid in a bucket, and repeat the process for each wheel until the fluid runs clear. Afterward, reinstall the tires and refill the brake fluid as needed.

Can you tell me where I can find the brake fluid?
