AS A MINIVAN IN FRONT OF ME PUT THEIR LEFT TURN SIGNAL ON LATE, I HAD TO HIT MY BRAKES QUICKLY AND WHEN I DID MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I WAS PUMPING AIR AND HAD NO BRAKES AT ALL. I SWIRVED AROUND THE VAN AND LUCKILY I WAS ON AN INCLINED ROAD AS I WAS ABLE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN INTO A LOT AND THEN PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO GET THE TRUCK STOPPED. MY FRONT AND BACK BRAKE LINE BLEW OUT AND MY MECHANIC SAID I WAS LUCKY THAT I WASN'T KILLED. NOW THE TRUCK IS NOT USABLE AND THE AFTER 52,000 MILES I FEEL THIS IS A SITUATION OF DEFECTIVE BRAKE LINES. *TR
