Consumer Description

BRAKE LINES RUSTED OUT PREMATURELY AND BURST, CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKING ABILITY. HAD TO REPLACE EVERY BRAKE LINE ON THE ENTIRE TRUCK, FOR THEY WERE ALL EXTREMELY RUSTY. 2 MONTHS LATER MY FUEL LINE ALSO SPRUNG A LEAK DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUST, CAUSING FUEL TO SPILL, CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS, AND HARD STARTING. BOTH OF THESE ISSUES PRESENT MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS, AND UNFORTUNATELY ARE EXTREMELY COMMON WITH THESE TRUCKS.
