“Brake lines failed on my 2007 Gmc 2500 and my 2007 Gmc 1500. It appears to be a common problem with Gmc vehicles from 2003 to 2009. Why wasn't these vehicles recalled for this. I was told that Gmc was offering a discounted price for failed brake lines, but the dealer charged me full price. $1,667.00. The discounted price was supposed to be $500.00.”
NHTSA complaint #11025150, filed 2017-09, 71,225 miles“On oct. 12, 20115, while driving on a state highway to the grocery store, as I was slowing down for a red light the passenger side rear brake line ruptured. To make a long story short, I purchased a new brake line and replaced it. I also had to replace the caliper because of corrosion. During the replacement of the brake line I inspected the other brake lines. They were also rusty. I called my service center and they told me it's a result of the pre-treatment solution they spray on the roads in the winter. …”
