Consumer Description

I OWN A 99 GMC SIERRA 2500. WHILE PULLING A 9000 LB TRAILER MY BRAKES WENT OUT HAD ENOUGH TIME TO DOWN SHIFT AND USE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO BRING TRUCK TOO A STOP. UPON INVESTIGATION I NOTICED THE BLOWN BRAKE LINE AND LOTS OF CORROSION ON THE UNDER CARRIAGE OF THE VEHICLE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE OWNED OLDER VEHICLES AND HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH RUST ON THE UNDER CARRIAGE LIKE THIS TRUCK HAS. ESPECIALLY THE BRAKE AND FUEL LINES. *TR
