Brake Master Cylinder problems of the 2001 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

Driving along and attempted to stop, when the brakes suddenly failed. Pedal went to floor. Upon checking the truck, the front brake lines from the master cylinder are completely rusted as they turn and route over the frame to the abs unit which is mounted under the driver seat floor. Upon inspection, all of the lines are severely corroded and will require replacement. One let loose due to the rust and corrosion, and caused a large leak, resulting in the pedal going to the floor and the brakes failing. This is a one owner truck and has not had any modifications to it. The placement of the abs unit and the way the lines are routed exposes the brake lines to all of the road spray and therefore road salt, which corrodes the lines prematurely. If investigators would like to come out and inspect this vehicle, contact me- it has not been touched and is as it came from the factory. This needs to be handled by gm ASAP. This is a crash waiting to happen. This has already proved to be very dangerous, as the loss of the brakes was sudden and without warning. The pedal goes to the floor with little, make that very little braking ability left intact. If I were to be towing anything or going faster, it would have resulted in a crash for sure. Please keep in mind this is a 2500hd, which is used by most to tow large, heavy items, as it was designed to do. Brakes should not fail in this fashion. This is a universal problem in the snow belt and the owners should be at least warned to check their lines before a crash occurs. Please issue a recall and warn others as these trucks are starting to age and will be failing at an alarming rate. This is a safety nightmare. This is a real threat for those who live in the salt belt-please upgrade this investigation ASAP before someone gets killed as a result of this sudden brake loss.
