2 Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem of the 2008 Chevrolet Express

Failure Date: 04/12/2015

When I was driving in my local area,my brakes started to give out. In order to stop I needed to press very hard on the brakes to stop. Not easy to do. The warning brake indicator light came on. I took it to a local auto repair shop. They said they could not fix it. The brake line was the issue. They filled it with brake fluid then I was able too drive it to the dealer who then repaired the line ,for 600 dollars. My question is were there other complaints about this issue. ?if my kids were driving this it might have been a different story. Thank goodness no one was hurt. There was no other indicators of this issue.

3 Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem of the 2000 Chevrolet Express

Failure Date: 07/12/2014

1 of many issues with this van. 62000 miles. Rear brake line blew, luckily in my driveway. Upon inspection all the lines in the rear need replaced. Funny thing is the bottomside of the van is as clean as can be. I bought this van 2 years old with 24000 miles, I'm extremely picky about my vehicles and am a maintanence nut. Always garaged, waxed numerous time a year, synthetic fluids. . . . . Here is a list of what I remember has gone wrong with this van. Intake gaskets, twice. Front bumper reinforcement rotted out 40,000 miles, rear chrome bumper rotted 40,000 miles, ac line corroded thru, transmission grenaded at 42,000 mile(sun shield failure?), left window motor has dead spot in it from day 1. Remember this is a very well maintained, always garaged, mainly driven for vacations. Gm is well aware of all these issues and wouldn't help on any.
