Consumer Description

TOTAL FAILURE OF STEEL BRAKE LINE (FRONT TO REAR) WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT AFTER A DOCTOR VISIT I WAS SHOCKED TO FEEL MY BRAKE PEDAL GO TO THE FLOOR, LUCKILY THE SPLIT SYSTEM ALLOWED ME TO STOP BEFORE ENTERING A BUSY HIGHWAY. CAR WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALER FOR REPAIR THE OWNER SAYS THIS HAPPENS ALOT AFTER PAYING A 250.00 BILL I WAS ON MY WAY CONSIDERING RISKS ENVOLVED I FEEL MANUFACTURERS SHOULD BE MADE TO BY LAW TO USE STAINLESS MATERIAL FOR ALL BRAKE COMPONENTS. THEY MUST NOW BE USING A LOW GRADE STEEL (NO DOUBT TO CUT MANUFACTURING COSTS). *TR
