Brake line rupture and resulting brake failure caused minor rear end collision with vehicle in front. Air bag activated but structural damage minor until the fire. Fire originated in front left (impacted) corner and consumed entire engine compartment to the fire wall. Weather perfect, dry roads, no obvious cause of fire. Except for brakes vehicle was drivable until fire.

While pulling out of parking spaces (usually), the brake will not go down. I have to push the pedal with all my strength to get the car to stop. Luckily it always happens in parking lots so the car is only going 5mph at the highest. The dealership said that the brake line had a leak in it. They replaced the line, but the problem still occurs at least once a week. I had them look at it a second time and they said that their machines weren't showing any type of warning about the problem.
