Owner Narrative
I JUST TOOK MY 99 GMC SIERRA 1500 TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE BRAKE PEDAL GOING ALL WAY TO THE FLOOR AFTER DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND FELT THE SOFTNESS IN THE BRAKE PEDAL ATTEMPTING TO STOP BECAUSE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC. *TR THE SERVICE TECH FOUND THE BRAKE LINE LEAKING DUE CORROSION, THE TECH GAVE THE WORST CASE SCENARIO WHICH WOULD BE REPLACING ALL 4 CALIPERS, BRAKE HOSES, AND BRAKE LINES FOR OVER $3000.00. GM OR NHTSA NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL OR SOMETHING BUT SOMEONE GETS KILL. LUCKY THERE HAS BEEN NO DEATHS BECAUSE OF SUB QUALITY PARTS USED BY GM. *TR
