Brake lines have rusted out. Abs warning light came on, then soon after abs service light came on. Had to replace all of the lines and 3 calipers where lines had rusted to the caliper. Vehicle only has 41200 miles on it. Cost me $861 to have them replaced. Service technician said he had never seen lines that were that bad for a vehicle with such low milage. One of the lines crumbled at the touch when it was removed.
