THESE DEFECTS HAVE SERIOUS SAFETY IMPLICATIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH TO THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS OR OTHERS. GM SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES AND REPLACE ALL MAJOR CORRODED BRAKE COMPONENTS WITH NON CORROSIVE METALS, BRAKE FLUID LINES, FUEL LINES, RUSTED FRAMES AND ANY OTHER COMPONENTS. MANY ACCIDENTS WILL BE OCCURRING BECAUSE OF BRAKING FAILURES AND FRAME FAILURE. THIS RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ANY OTHER FAILURES OCCUR.
