Brake fluid absorbs water and can rot the lines from teh inside. It should be replaced every couple of years.

THe exhaust flex joint is just that, a joint that allws the exhaust to flex as the engine moves. The last a while but can wear out. Don't go by mileage, time is also a factor. Just because it hasn't been driven much doesn't mean things degrade. Same for the lower control arms.
