Brake Hoses, Lines/piping, And Fittings Problems of Hyundai Accent

The brakes lines (both front and rear) failed while I was driving. I was traveling down a 4 lane road (speed limit 35mph) when I noticed that my brake pedal went all the way to the floor when I was stopping at a red light. I was able to pull the car over to the side of the road (luckily I was not on the freeway or needed to make a quick stop because I would have definitely crashed into another car). I noticed dripping fluid (brake fluid) coming from the middle of my car. I had my car towed to an auto mechanic's shop where they inspected the brakes and brake lines. Both my front and rear brake lines were corroded and rotten out and needed to be replaced. The mechanic noted that the brake lines rotted away where there was no coating. My car is only 6 years old and under 100,000 miles and a part like that should not have failed me. It is a safety issue to not coat the entire brake line.

Fuel line and power steering line rubbed where they were close together in the engine compartment causing a hole in the fuel line which was spraying a steady strem of gasloline right into the engine compartment all over the transmission and radiator fans. I feel that this was a design flaw and that those lines never should have been placed that close together this is not a laughing matter however Hyundai motors of America tol me there was nothing they could do about it because my car is out of warranty. I could have been killed there could have been an explosion and or fire.
