Consumer Description

BRAKE LINE BURST. AFTER JUST GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY, STOPPING AT STOP SIGN AND FELT SOMETHING CHANGE. PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT, HAD TO PRESS PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO STOP. BRAKE FLUID POURING OUT OF REAR LEFT SIDE. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED. SCARY TO THINK IF IT HAD GONE ON HIGHWAY, ESP. SINCE I HAD MY 4 YR. OLD WITH ME. REPLACED W/ DEALER PART. MECHANIC STATED THAT THE 3 OTHER SECTIONS HAVE A COATING TO PREVENT CORROSION BUT THE 4TH DOESN'T, THAT'S HOW IT COMES. SO THIS NEW PART IS SUBJECT TO FAIL AGAIN? THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. HOW COMMON IS THIS REPAIR? IS THERE A DESIGN FLAW THAT COULD BE REMEDIED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES? *TR
