Consumer Description

I NOTICED WET SPOTS ON THE ROAD UNDER THE TRUCK NEAR THE LEFT REAR WHEEL AFTER STOPPING. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I NOTICED THAT THE BRAKE LINES ARE CORRODED IN MOST PLACES. THERE IS CURRENTLY A LEAK IN THE FEED LINE RUNNING TO THE BACK BRAKES AT A POINT NEAR THE LEFT REAR WHEEL. THE LINES LOOK AS IF THEY COULD FAIL IN MOST PLACES. CURRENTLY THE TRUCK IS NOTS DRIVABLE UNTIL THE BRAKE LINES ARE REPLACED. WE HAVE HAD OTHER NUMEROUS BRAKE ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE AS WELL. *JS
