Complaint Summary

SERVICE BRAKES

Owner Narrative

I WAS DRIVING AND MY BRAKES WENT TO THE FLOOR. I GOT IT TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SAID MY REAR AND FRONT DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE LINES HAD RUSTED OUT AND HAD HOLES IN THEM. I HAD THEM REPLACED. THEN ON FEBRUARY 2013 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. IT TURNED OUT THAT NOW THE DRIVER SIDE AND THE TWO LINES TO THE MASTER CYLINDER HAVE RUSTED THROUGH. I HAVE NEVER HAD A BRAKE LINE RUST THROUGH. ON THIS TRUCK I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE EVERYTHING AT THE COST OF OVER $500.00. THIS IS NOT RITE.... *TR
