1 Air Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem of the 2001 Chevrolet Suburban

Failure Date: 03/15/2012

I was taking my Suburban in for it's annual safety inspection and was notified by my mechanic that one of the vehicle's brake lines (exiting the abs pump) was leaking and that all five of the primary brake lines are externally rusted and near breaking. All five lines need to be replaced resulting in very costly repairs. I have six children and we regularly travel as a family. This potential failure has jeopardized my children's lives and gm should be held accountable for selling an inferior product. The vehicle has 88,000 miles and is regularly maintained.

2 Air Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings problem of the 2002 Chevrolet Suburban

Failure Date: 02/18/2005

Feb. 05 we were in big bear CA. With 4 or more feet of fresh snow: coming down the hill in our 2002 Suburban the brakes became very soft and pedal went to the floor with no brakes. We checked the ground under Suburban and all the brake fluid was on the snow. We had subruban towed to the nearest dealer in redlands because there is a "bumper to bumper" policy on it. Tom bell had to replace the "brake line". We took a cab to the ontario airport for a rental car and drove back home.
