now.....on to yer question...........
No, you did not harm yer brake system one bit. If anything.......you increased the quality of the fluid by allowing it the privilege of being installed in a worthy vehical.
However, you may want to consider renewing that AAA insurance..... though the fluid ain't gonna cause you no brake concerns......there's always the possibility that it could contaminate yer Chevy....and make it start act'n like a Ford. you may start experiencing sudden unexplained ignition failures, oil leaks, vibrations, engine seize's, and an overall loss of reliability of the engines mechanical system as a whole.
