Complaint Summary
SERVICE BRAKES
Owner Narrative
FRONT BRAKE LINE FAILED. COMPLETELY RUSTED, IT BLEW OUT INSIDE ONE THE CLIPS THAT HOLD IT IN PLACE. HORRIBLE DESIGN. TRUCK IS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY BECAUSE I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPAIR BRAKES. ESTIMATE WAS OVER 1500, JUST TO REPLACE THE LINES, WITH COATED STEEL, NOT STAINLESS. FUEL LINES ARE ALL RUSTED AS WELL. ALL NEED REPLACEMENT. *TR
