Consumer Description

POURING RAIN I WAS TAKING MY MOTHER TO SEE MY DAD AT THE HOSPITAL. I STARTED DOWN THE STREET AND WENT TO STOP. PEDAL SUNK TO THE FLOOR. I CAME TO A STOP PART WAY INTO THE INTERSECTION. THANK GOD, FOR GOD AND MY GUARDIAN ANGEL THAT I WASN'T ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS CORRODED BRAKE LINES. IT'S A 2004 WITH 80,000 MILES ON IT. NEVER BEEN OFF-ROAD. WHY HASN'T GM AND THE TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMITTEE ISSUED A RECALL. HAD THIS BEEN THE NIGHT BEFORE COMING HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL WE WOULD BE AT A FUNERAL. IT WAS FORTUNATE WE WERE DOING MAYBE 10MPH.
