1 Brake Fluid Leak problem

Failure Date: 03/01/2019

Rear right brake line leaking fluid. This could be a fatal accident if I was on the highway. My 2003 chevy Impala rear right brake line is rusted badly. The brake line actually rubbing against an across line that has a bunch of electric lines bundled together which is going over the rusted brake line and ends up causing the brake line worn out and brake fluid leakage. This could be a serious safety issue. Is it possible the administration could conduct a research on the model of this car for this issue?.

2 Brake Fluid Leak problem

Failure Date: 01/08/2013

Brake line from master cylinder blew, brake fluid leaked and brakes failed. Brake warning light did not come on until brakes were inoperable. Line was found to be rusted through. This is a known problem and is a major safety issue. Brake warning light should come on immediately when a brake line ruptures to give the driver time to stop before brakes fail completely.
