| 2002 | SERVICE BRAKES | WHILE DRIVING AT APP 50MPH I TRIED TO BRAKE TO AVOID A VEHICLE WHICH PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND MY PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. TO MY HORROR I HAD NO BRAKES!!!!!! LUCKILY MY 2002 GMC IS A 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND I WAS ABLE TO DOWN SHIFT TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. USING MY TRANSMISSION AND FINALLY MY EMERGENCY BRAKE (WHICH RUSTED THROUGH THE YEAR BEFORE AND COST OVER $300. TO REPAIR)) I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SAFELY STOP. MY AUTO WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE THE MECHANIC SHOWED ME THE RUSTED THROUGH BRAKE LINES. IT COST ME OVER $2,000 FOR REPAIRS. *TR |
| 2000 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | I HAVE A 2000 GMC SIERRA THAT HAD BRAKE LINE RUST THROUGH CAUSING BRAKE FAILURE. I GOT UNDER THE VEHICLE TO TRY AND CHANGE THE LINE AND FOUND ALL THE LINES ARE SEVERELY RUSTED AS IS THE FUEL LINES. YES MY TRUCK IS OLD AND I LIVE IN THE RUST BELT OF N.Y BUT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE EITHER N.Y STOP USING SALT OR THE VEHICLES NEED TO BE BUILT WITH LINES THAT DON'T RUST OUT. THIS ISSUE I THINK IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT WOULD BE EASILY FIXED BY EITHER NO MORE SALT OR BETTER LINE IN THE VEHICLES THAT DON'T RUST THROUGH. *TR |
