4 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 09/03/2013

I own a 2005 chevy Tahoe I bought new. Last year in 2012 the fuel lines coming out of the fuel pump rotted out and I had to replace the whole pump. Early this year (2013) the transmission lines rotted out and all had to be replaced, in September this year (2013) the brake lines rotted out and had to be replaced. Lucky for me I was just leaving my driveway. I am very disappointed with this gm vehicle. I don't know if I would ever buy a gm vehicle again.
