2 Frame And Members problem

Failure Date: 08/31/2010

I was parked in a friends driveway and was about to leave when I released the parking brake stepped on the brake pedal and put my 2002 GMC 2500hd truck into gear. I started driving down the street and approached a stop sign, when I applied the brakes the pedal went straight to the floor. I pulled off to the side of the road and opened the hood when I noticed brake fluid all over the frame in the engine compartment. Upon further investigation I found all the brake lines to be severely rusted and at least one of them ruptured. I was driving with my 9 month old son at the time of the incident and thank god nobody was coming the other way down the road. I had the truck towed to my home where it sits awaiting a total brake line replacement. The underneath of the truck is so severely rusted I think GMC is liable and should issue a recall to correct the problem.
