I was parked in front of my home. i was getting ready to leave for work and i pressed the brake pedal down to start the truck and the brake pedal went to the floor. i had the window down so everytime i pressed the brake pedal i heard the pressure of the brake fluid being pushed out the broken brake line. it cost 350.00 just to get repaired plus a tow. my mechanic said it was caused by the brake line being corroted. it was only one of the four brake lines on my truck but the mechanic said the other ones look pretty bad also and dont have the money to replace all of them. |
