Consumer Description

THE BRAKE LINES ON MY 2004 CHEVROLET SILVERADO ARE BADLY CORRODED AND ONE OF THEM HAS FAILED. WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND THE TRUCK HAD NO BRAKES WHATSOEVER. FORTUNATELY I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. I LIVE IN KENTUCKY AND I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK SINCE NEW. WE RECEIVE A MINIMAL AMOUNT OF BAD WINTER WEATHER HERE SO I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THIS WAS CAUSED BY SALT. THIS TRUCK IS ONLY 13 YEARS OLD.
