I brought my c4 to the dealership for a 45k tune up. All went well and I feel the difference in the overall feel of the car. However, I backed up and out of my garage this morning and noticed a big puddle of brake fluid under the car in the front. I opened the bonnet to check the brake fluid reservoir and noticed that the level is fine but a whole lot of fluid leaked out of it and unedr the spare. Luckily it drained out of the little drainage whole. I brought it to the dealer and they could not find anything wrong with it. Has this happened to any one of you before?

Never happened to me, but clean up the spilled fluid pronto! It can eat though paint pretty quickly!

Are you sure it was brake fluid? The AC is right in that area and it could have been condensation if you were running your AC.

check your power steering fluid. It is behind the oil fill cap and dip stick (right rear quarter panel,)

This happened to me. What happened to me was the brake sysytem was flushed and some brake fluid and cleaner drips into the lower floor pan underneath the spare. Because there are channels in the floor pan (and the battery cable runs in one of the channels, fluid gets trapped.
Pull your spare out and look closely to see that all the fluids are gone.
