Complaint Summary
SERVICE BRAKES
Owner Narrative
THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW AND HAS BEEN REGULARLY MAINTAINED. THE BRAKE LINES AND FRAME ARE HEAVILY CORRODED. WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT ON 10/26/14 BRAKES WERE APPLIED ABRUPTLY WHICH CAUSED A RUPTURE OF THE CORRODED BRAKE LINES. ALL BRAKE LINES WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER TO SAFELY RETURN THE VEHICLE TO SERVICE. OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE 2004 CHEVY YUKON AND 1994 GMC 2500, BOTH VEHICLES HAD BRAKE LINES FAIL DUE TO CORROSION AND REQUIRED COMPLETE REPLACEMENT IN ORDER TO SAFELY RETURN THE VEHICLES TO SERVICE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND THESE BRAKE LINE FAILURES ARE NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL VEHICLES MUCH OLDER THAN THIS VEHICLE WHICH STILL HAVE STOCK BRAKE LINES WITH NO CORROSION. *TR
