Owner Narrative
THE REAR BRAKE LINE FAILED WHEN TRYING TO STOP FOR A RED LIGHT. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP THE TRUCK BEFORE ENTERING THE INTERSECTION. FORTUNATELY, THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC CROSSING THE INTERSECTION AT THE TIME. I GOT THE TRUCK HOME, AND A PUDDLE OF BRAKE FLUID FORMED IN THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. UPON INSPECTION, ALL OF THE BRAKE LINES ARE BADLY CORRODED. *TR
