Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING AROUND 45MH AND WAS COMING TO STOP SIGN BUT WHEN I WENT TO USE BRAKE THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I KEPT PUMPING WHICH SEEMED TO HELP JUST ENOUGH TO TURN INTO THE DRIVE WAY OF A MALL THAT HAPPENED TO BE CLOSED. I AM SO THANKFUL THAT IT WAS LATE AT NIGHT OR I WOULD HAVE SMASHED INTO SOMEONE. SHOP SAID MAIN BRAKE LINE RUSTED THROUGH, A COMMON PROBLEM THAT CHEVY COULD CARE LESS ABOUT. VERY SAD CHEVY........
