2003 GMC SIERRA 1500, BRAKE LINE FAILURE. PURCHASED TRUCK NEW IN 2003 WHILE STATIONED IN THE SOUTH, TRANSFERRED TO NEW ENGLAND IN 2008. 50/50 NORTH-SOUTH TRUCK, CAN'T BLAME IT ALL ON ROAD SALT. EVENT: WHILE IN PARKING LOT THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT RIGHT TO THE FLOOR WHILE SHIFTING INTO REVERSE. BRAKE LINES COMPLETELY ROTTED OUT, FLUID ON THE GROUND LEFT FRONT SIDE AND UNDER DRIVERS SEAT AREA. DRUMS AND ROTORS WERE REPLACED TWO YEARS PRIOR. TRUCK WAS TOWED TO THE SHOP AND I'M STILL AWAITING THE ESTIMATE. AFTER QUICKLY READING THE AMOUNT OF ISSUES IN THE PAST 24 HOURS GM NEEDS TO RECALL AND FIX THESE ISSUE BEFORE LOSS OF LIFE NUMBERS INCREASE. *TR
