Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On my way back from a trip towing my horse trailer the brake pedal was beginning to get a little soft. when i got into my driveway the brake pedal went to the floor. since i was traveling very slowly i was able to stop without hitting anything. my husband and i inspected the truck and found brake fluid leaking from the frame rail in front of the left rear wheel. we are having the leaking corroded metal brake line replaced at this time. we asked the mechanic to save the part. *jb
