Hello, I was told that I need a brake fluid flush. My brake fluid came out saying it had 200 copper parts per million. My vehicle has 207000 miles and it has never had new brake fluid. Should I change the fluid now and if I dont what damage can it cause?

If its never been changed I would change it brake fluid gets water in it and water causes rust to inside the wheel cylinders and calipers causing leaks. It will also cause the fluid to boil at a lower temps causing a loss to braking power.
