Hydraulic brake tube ruptured due to corrosion. Vehicle failed to stop. But because it's not a Toyota no one will do anything about it.
Truck brake pedal applied and brakes went to the floor, lines hidden by gas tank ruptured, this truck was showroom condition and spent most of it's time clean and in the garage, no rust apparent anywhere else.
The parking brake has never worked properly since new. Your partial recall fix for standard transmissions only is inadequate. Make me wonder about undue gm influence. Just because the automatic transmission trucks have park. That is not an excuse for gm not to fix the parking brake.
