| Was attempting to back vehicle and camper trailer down inclined driveway when suddenly the brake pedal went completely to the floor and i had absolute minimum braking force. was able to stop vehicle before it and trailer went over the hill, (an approximate 15 - 20 foot drop if it had occurred). upon inspection i found brake fluid on the driveway. upon further inspection i discovered that a brake line leading from the master cylinder to the abs controller was leaking. upon further inspection i found that all the brake lines were severely corroded and ready to fail. i cannot believe how much rust is present on the brake lines and the fuel lines. this appears to be a major accident waiting to happen. *tr | |||

| Upon starting the vehicle and depressing the brakes, the brakes went to the floor. upon inspection from a mechanic, it was noted that both brake lines were rotted (one was rotted all the way through causing the fluid to leak from the line). we were also told that the gas line and caliper had severe rotting. upon my research, this seems to be a very common problem with chevrolet trucks. i hope this will be resolved so additional chevrolet owners do not have severe accidents due to these issues. my husband and 4 year old son had to walk quite a few miles in 95 degree weather! this is a safety issue and i hope my complaint will help further the investigation. *js | |||
