Description of the problem | On may 20, 2012 when moving my gmc 1500 pick up truck from my driveway at low speed i stepped on the brake only to have the pedal go all the way to the floor. This is the second time this occurred in about six months. On or about october 21, 2011 i also lost my brakes when parking the truck at a local strip mall. The required repair was for a corroded brake line. Thank god that both times i was traveling slowly. At highway speed i could easily have be killed. Please check this out!! |
