GOING ON A TRIP TO THE STORE , SO BEFORE THE INTERSECTION I NEED IT TO STOP, SO PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN AND THE PEDAL JUST WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND NO WARNING LIGHT OR SOUND AND MORE IMPORTANTLY NO BRAKES!!!!! SO I ACTED QUICKLY AND DOWN SHIFT IT TO 1ST GEAR THAT SLOW IT DOWN SOME SO I PUT IT IN PARK AND SHUCK THE TRUCK BUT I GOT IT TO STOP. 10 MORE FEET AND WOULD GO IN TO CROSSING TRAFFIC THAT WAS VERY CLOSE. SO I WANT TO KNOW IF GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM (RUSTY BRAKE LINES UNDER THE TRUCK) AND IF THEY ARE GOING TO DO ANY THING TO FIX IT.THEY SHOULD INFORM THE DANGER TO PUBLIC. *TR
