NHTSA Complaint #714044 — 1999 OLDSMOBILE ALERO

I DROVE THE VEHICLE OVER A SNOW MOUND CREATED BY THE SNOW PLOWS AFTER A PASS ALONG THE STREET. AFTER THAT THE VEHICE MADE A TERRIBLE SCAPPING NOISE. I STOPPPED THE VEHICLE THREE TIMES TO CHECK AND SEE IF ICE OR SNOW WAS PACKED UP IN THE WHEEL WELL OR UNDER CAR. AFTER GETTING BACK TO WORK ONE OF THE GUYS CRAWLED UNDER MY VEHICLE AND SAID THERE WAS A METAL LINE HANGING TO THE GROUND THAT WAS LEAKING WHAT SMELLED LIKE BRAKE FLUID. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISSTANCE AND THE VEHICLE WAS PICKED UP. THE BRAKE LINE WAS DISLODGED AND DRAGGING THE PAVEMENT FROM JUST DRIVING OVER SNOW. THE MANUFACTURER SAYS IT IS ROAD DAMAGE AND I MUST PAY FOR IT. ANYTHING I DRIVE OVER IS CONSIDERED ROAD DAMAGE. BUT YOU CAN'T DRIVE IN ALASKA WITHOUT DRIVING OVER SNOW. BUT IF SIMPLY DRIVING OVER SNOW CAN DISLODGE MY BRAKE LINE THIS SEEMS PRETTY DANGEROUS TO ME, SINCE I LIVE IN ALASKA. I ASKED IF THEY PROTECTED THE BRAKE LINES. I THINK THEY SHOULD BE BETTER PROTECTED BETTER THEN WHAT THEY ARE. I AM WORRIED ABOUT DRIVING MY VEHICLE NOW. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE. PLEASE HELP.
