 Description of the problemComing to a stop to make a left hand turn, light coating of snow on the road made it slippery, abs braking cycled i held brake pedal down as the manuals say to do with abs system, truck slowed abs cycled again and then pedal went to the floor. My vehicle ended up sideways in road and thirty feet from my turn and nearly in a ditch, i then backed up to make my turn and brakes went to the floor again as i stopped to enter my road , fortunately my home was only about 500 yards from this spot. I had almost no brakes at all as i entered my driveway and parked. I then inspected fluid level in master cylinder which appeared full , from there i followed line down to the abs module to the braided brake line and still saw no leaks, then followed the braided brake line to the brake line tubing to the frame behind the wheel well where the line closest to the wheel well was leaking fluid and it had sprayed all over the line and under carriage and frame and wheel housing shroud. The line is rusted out and burst the truck has less than 80000 miles on it and is well maintained and i bought this truck new with 8 miles on it and paid $43000 for it. This is horrendous and incredibly dangerous there was no stopping power at all, had this happened on the highway or at a busy intersection there would have been a collision.
