Description of the problem | No incident yet... Extensive rust on brake lines near engine... Also excessive rust pitting on brake rotors. Gm dealer says caused by salt.. Truck is 2000 model with less than 60,000 miles. I am afraid brake lines may rupture prematurely due to excessive rust and pitting. Independent mechanics verify my feelings. *nm |
