2010 Subaru Outback. When my wife was entering a 4-way stop, the brake pedal went to the floor. Was able to get home without incident. Upon inspection, found the brake lines at a junction block near the gas tank severely corroded and leaking. Why was this not part of the recall which went from 2005-2009. Car was mfg'd in 2009, about 150000 miles.

I lost the brakes going down our steep driveway into the private road. We discovered that the brake fluid reservoir was empty. When my husband removed the plastic fuel tank cover to check for a leak, he discovered that the hard brake lines were heavily corroded right around the brake line junction box, similar to the 2005-2009 Outbacks. The car had one owner before us, in massachusetts. We are in maine. .

Rear brake lines are rusted and one off the pipes has busted I now have no brakes. Happened on Monday 7/6/2020.
