Description of the problem | Pulling into my driveway truck started to slow then the pedal went to the floor. Tried pumping the brakes but did not stop untill i hit two garbage cans and pushed them into my garage door. I now have a truck i cant drive and a garage door that will have to be replaced. There was no warning i am just fortinate that no one was infront of this truck. One of the lines to the rear of the truck blew out and lost its fluid all over my driveway. I thought if you lost 1 line the truck could still stop with the front brakes but i had nothing. Please warn people before this problem kills people. |
