Consumer Description

1/26/2023 front left brake line failed resulting in minimal stopping ability and loss of brake fluid. Right side brake line was inspected and replaced with a bulge in the line. Greatly reduced ability to stop, used extreme caution to immediately drive to repair service shop. Photos provided by the service shop that made the repair. They replaced both front brake lines and refiled the brake fluid and bleed the brake lines. No inspection by manufacture, police, or insurance. Failure did not result in accident but certainly compromised safety due to reduced stopping ability. No symptoms leading up to the time of failure. Upon the brake line failure, the brake indicator light came on and warning of low brake fluid. Truck is currently being repaired at time of reporting so the final invoice is not availble yet.
