Yes. If you have ingested brake fluid, call a poison control center for instructions. If possible have the container handy so you can be specific about what type of brake fluid it is.

There are many kinds of brake fluid, and for some of them a small amount may not be harmful, but why take the risk?

You put brake fluid where power steeling is supposed to go in is this a big problem can you just take it out and put right fluid in the car was ran only 15 minutes at most?

Both the power steering pump and the brake booster operate hydraulically. Putting brake fluid in the power steering pump will not harm it since brake fluid is a light oil only with different properties. I would only worry if it were the other way around and you put power steering fluid in the brake master cylinder. Power steering fluid doesn't have the heat range or density of brake fluid.

Why does brake fluid damage paint?

Brake fluid is corrosive due to its chemical composition, which includes glycol ethers and other solvents. When spilled on paint, it can break down the paint's protective layers, leading to discoloration, peeling, or even complete removal of the paint. The longer the brake fluid remains in contact with the paint, the more severe the damage can be, making prompt cleaning essential to minimize harm.
