Owner Narrative
WAS PULLING INTO PARKING SPACE, WHEN I APPLIED BRAKES TO STOP I HEARD A POP AND BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR. UPON INSPECTION I FOUND A CORRODED LEFT REAR BRAKE LINE HAD BUSTED AND I LOST ALL FLUID. WHEN I INSPECTED ALL THE OTHER BRAKE LINES THEY WERE ALSO HEAVILY CORRODED. I HAVE HAD MANY OLDER VEHICLES WITH OVER A HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES AND NEVER HAD CORRODED BRAKE LINES. *TR
