2 Other Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 03/21/2013

I had just driven 15 miles to on the expressway, I stopped at a store for a couple of minutes. When I went back to the truck, I didnt see the fluid under it, but got in and started the truck. At that time I was excellerating slowly to pull out of a parking spot. About that time a pedestrian stepped off the curb in front of me. I hit the break and it went to the floor! I missed the pedestrian and coasted to the end of the parking lot where I tried to apply the emergency break, that also failed! a concrete curb allowed me to stop the vehicle without incident. I had the vehicle towed to 2 garages before I could find one to repair it at a cost of just under $900. 00.
