“(3-17-2015) I was driving my 2005 Gmc denali xl, (with under 35000 miles) the brake light comes on, when I go to pull over, I realize my brake pedal bottoms out, I get it to a Gmc dealer, they tell me my brake lines are faulty do to bad undercarriage corrosion and rust, and inform me that it may take thousands of dollars just to correct the brake lines, and that other parts or systems may also fail....they also say it's not worth repairing. …”
