| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The brake pedal went to floor when brakes applies - no pressure and almost no braking of the vehicle possible. this occurred at a stop of the vehicle and therefore no crash. it was determined that a corroded brake line had failed leading to a complete loss of fluid and brakes. the brake fluid lines from the front of the car to the midpoint looked fine, but were completely corroded from that point back to the rear wheels. one of the lines had been replaced previously by the prior owner although without their specific knowledge. this would have been performed in 2000-2003. *nm |
