Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The hard brake line on my truck rusted through just behind the fuel tank causing loss of braking while driving. this appears to be a serious problem on most or all 1996 and newer dodge trucks. after searching the web i found thousands of other dodge truck owners with the identical problem. is there a recall to notify owners and correct this serious problem? my truck has no other rust and has been garage kept since new. the entire brake line from the master cylinder to the rear of the vehicle needs to be replaced and the system bleed. *nm
