Brake line rusted and brakes failed completely suddenly when my mechanic was moving auto from his garage after servicing my transmission I probably would have been in a serious accident had I picked up my car without that happening to him never expected a brake line to rust and cause brakes to suddenly be gone I am so worried another car will cause deaths if this defect is not known to owner.
Loss of brake fluid resulting in brake failure caused by rupture of corroded metal hydraulic brake line as confirmed by local mercedes dealer (hollaway motor cars-manchester-nh). Hollaway also confirmed same failure and cause on 2 other same model vehicles.
While applying brakes at 25 mph the brake pedal went to the floor and the vehicle continued on through an intersection controlled by a stop sign. Consumer was able to coast the vehicle through the intersection without an accident and bring the vehicle to a stop. Vehicle was towed to a repair shop and to a dealer, who informed consumer that the brake line leading to the rear needed to be replaced due to corrosion.
