Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While driving my car i experienced a loss of all but manual brakes. i managed to reach a nearby service garage where it was determined that one of the brake lines between the master cylinder and the modulator valve had corroded and failed. this occurred where the tubing is wedged to a flex hose. there is a second line between the master cylinder and the modulator valve and it also showed signs of corrosion at the same location. both lines have been replaced. i have retained the old lines. *nm
