Consumer Description

I WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, WAITING FOR IT TO CHANGE, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE BRAKE WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN AND ALL KINDS OF LIGHTS IN THE TRUCK WERE FLASHING INDICATING TROUBLE. I MANAGED TO PULL TO THE CURVE, PUT IT ON PARK, AND NOTICED THAT THERE WAS FUEL COMING DOWN FROM UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK. I CALLED AAA, SINCE I AM A MEMBER, AND THEY TOWED THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC INSPECTED THE TRUCK AND NOTICED THAT BOTH THE BRAKE LINES AND THE FUEL LINES WERE CORRODED. I HAPPENED TO READ ONLINE ABOUT OTHER CHEVY OWNERS THAT WERE HAVING ISSUES WITH BRAKE AND FUEL LINE CORROSION ON THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR CHEVY TAHOE I OWN. *TR
