 Description of the problemAfter driving for about 100 miles, stopped for lunch. After stopping for lunch, drove 2003 gmc yukon with only 54,000 miles on it for another 20 miles on country highway at 55mph. Stepped on brakes to slow-down for slower traffic, the pedal went to the floor and the brake light came on. The yukon was able to slow down before hitting the slower traffic. Drove about another 50 miles to nearest chevrolet/gmc dealer, needing to use full brake pedal travel to slow-down the vehicle. The service brake light came on everytime the brakes were applied. The dealership investigated the failure. The rear brake line had rusted through and burst. The fuel tank needed to be removed to replace rear brake lines on the truck. The truck had to be left overnight at a dealership 100 miles from final destination to have the lines replaced. The dealership was very helpful in completing the repairs. Estimated cost from the dealer for the repairs was $400 - $800. The brake line failed with no warning.
