My 2005 GMC Sierra 3500 crewcab with less than 77,000 miles on it experienced a ruptured brakeline. As I commenced going out my driveway the brake peddle felt mushy then went to the floor. Thank-goodness this happened in my driveway as opposed to out on the road! brake line was rusted and rotted thru causing a rupture in the line and brake failure. This vehicle is not routinely driven but used for hauling a horse trailer, trips or servere weather winter driving; thus the low mileage for it's age. Cannot haul a thing without brakes as the undersized braking system on this truck barely stops itself under normal braking conditions. It is kept clean, dry and stored in an open front building. Since my incident a friend of mine with a very simular truck (maybe a year or 2 newer) experience the same senario. Fortunately theirs happened as they were backing up to park at a campground and not out on the road either.

Brake lines rotted on way to garage .
