Consumer Description

I HAVE CHEVY TAHOE 1999,WHILE TRAVELING IN LOW SPEED ABOUT 20 MILES PER HOUR,I NEEDED TO STOP BEHIND CARS STOPPING IN FRONT OF ME FOR RED SIGNAL. I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT FELT SOFT, BRAKING POWER WAS WEEK AND EVENTUALLY I HID THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. FORTUNATELY NO INJURY. I HAD MY SUV CHECKED AND TO MY SURPRISE, I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT MY TAHOE HAS RUPTURED BREAK LINE DU TO COMPLETE RUST IN ALL THE BREAK LINES. TO ME THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY MATTER,AND AS I HEAR IT IS VERY COMMON WITH GM TRUCKS . CONSIDERING THE SIZE AND MASS OF MY SUV I COULD BE INVOLVE IN FATAL ACCIDENT COMPROMISING LIFE OF MANY PEOPLES. *TR
