Consumer Description

UPON TAKING MY TRUCK TO GET INSPECTED, I WAS INFORMED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS COMPLETELY SHOT. I TOOK THE TRCUK TO THE DEALER TO GET IT REPLACED AND WAS THEN TOLD THAT ALL FOUR BRAKES WERE GONE (DOWN TO THE ROTORS). THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 42,000 MILES AND WAS NOT DRIVEN THAT HARD SINCE PURCHASED.
