Yes, brake fluid can evaporate if it leaks onto the ground, particularly if it is exposed to heat and air. However, brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the environment, which can also contribute to its degradation over time. While some of the fluid may evaporate, a significant amount will typically remain on the surface, where it can damage paint and other materials. It's important to clean up any leaks promptly to prevent damage and ensure safe braking performance.
