SERVICE BRAKES
I WAS PARKING OUR 2004 GMC SIERRA PICK UP TRUCK WHEN MY FOOT WENT RIGHT TO THE FLOOR. AFTER GETTING OUT OF THE TRUCK, I NOTICED ALL THE BRAKE FLUID DRAINING OUT OF THE BRAKE LINE ON TO THE GROUND. WHEN OUR MECHANIC LOOKED AT IT, HE SAID ALL THE BRAKE LINES WERE RUSTED OUT AND THAT THE WHOLE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE TRUCK WAS ENTIRELY RUSTED OUT. WHAT A DISGRACE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES TO AVOID CRASHING INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HIM; HOWEVER, THEY FAILED TO RESPOND. THE CONTACT WAS FORCED TO MAKE A LEFT TO AVOID THE CRASH. THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE BRAKE LINE WAS REPLACED AS IT WAS COVERED WITH RUST.
