Consumer Description

AS I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 35MPH APPROACHING A RED STOPLIGHT I PROCEEDED TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, WITH NO BRAKING OF THE VEHICLE. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL AND ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND AVOID COLLISION. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION I FOUND THE HARD BRAKE LINE RUNNING TO THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL HAD RUPTURED CAUSING THE LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID. THE LINE RUPTURED IN AN AREA WHERE IT WAS SEVERELY CORRODED AND UPON INSPECTION, THE OTHER HARD BRAKE LINES OF THE SYSTEM LOOKED SEVERELY CORRODED ALSO. ALL WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED! THIS FAILURE COULD HAVE HAD A VERY BAD CONSEQUENCES AT A HIGHER SPEED, CLOSER PROXIMITY TO OTHER VEHICLES, OR WITH A LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVER! *TR
