Service brakes 79,000 mi 4.4 yr in service
WAS GOING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY (WHICH IS ON A STEEP HILL) AND BRAKES TOTALLY GAVE OUT. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS ON THE ROAD AND I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLES TO A MECHANIC. MECHANIC FOUND A SMALL PIN HOLE IN RIGHT FRONT BRAKE HOSE WHICH HE FOUND UNUSUAL. ALL BRAKE FLUID LEADED OUT. NEAR THE HOLE WAS A SPRING THAT WRAPS AROUND THE RUBBER BRAKE LINE. IT WAS PRETTY OBVIOUS THE PLACEMENT OF THE SPRING CAUSED THE DAMAGE. THE BRAKE LINE DEVELOPED A HOLE IN IT WHERE THE END OF SPRING TOUCHES RUBBER BRAKE LINE. THE NIGH BEFORE I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DEVASTATING.
