Consumer Description

COMPLETE FAILURE OF BRAKING SYSTEM. AS I WAS LEAVING A PARKING LOT (AT ABOUT 5 MPH) THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AS I APPLIED THE SERVICE BRAKES. THERE WAS NO BRAKING CONTROL. I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A STOP AS IT ROLLED ACROSS THE STREET BY SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION INTO REVERSE AND BUMPING IT AGAINST THE CURB. THERE WAS NO VEHICLE DAMAGE OR OCCUPANT INJURY. NO BRAKE WARNING LIGHT SHOWED EITHER BEFORE THE EVENT OR AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND I REAPPLIED THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY IN THE REPAIR SHOP AND WE ARE WAITING TO GET THE PARTS TO REPAIR. THERE IS A POOL OF BRAKE FLUID LOCATED UNDER THE DRIVER'S DOOR WHICH IS WHERE THE BRAKE LINE HAS CORRODED AND FAILED. I WILL NEED TO REPLACE ALL THE BRAKE LINES AS THEY ARE ALSO CORRODED, AS WELL AS ALL THE BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS BECAUSE OF CORROSION. I WILL RETAIN THE CORRODED PARTS FOR FUTURE INSPECTION. *TR
