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.

The contact owns a 2001 GMC Sierra 2500. The contact went to a mechanic inquiring about the backing plate located near the emergency brake. The mechanic informed him that the backing plates often disintegrated. The contact believed that it was made out of an inferior metal and should not have failed at such a rate. The emergency brake was not working in his vehicle because it was rusted, which the contact attributed to the defective backing plate. The dealer stated that they had no issues with the backing plates and there were no recalls for this issue. The current and failure mileages were approximately 43,000.
