WHILE APPROACHING A STOP SIGN AT A "T" INTERSECTION ON A LOCAL SET OF RESIDENTIAL ROADS, THE BRAKES COMPLETELY FAILED ON MY TAHOE. I DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH PEDAL TO STOP FOR THE STOP SIGN AND BLEW THROUGH THE INTERSECTION, THANKFULLY WITHOUT STRIKING ANY CARS. UPON INSPECTION I FOUND BRAKE FLUID STREAMING FROM THE BRAKE LINE WHERE IT WAS MOUNTED TO THE FRAME AT THE LEFT REAR WHEEL WELL. I WAS ABLE TO PUMP UP THE BRAKES ENOUGH TO LIMP THE 3 MILES AT ABOUT 20 MPH BACK TO MY HOUSE FOR A REPAIR. I WAS QUITE DISMAYED TO LEARN OF ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT EXIST WITH RUSTED GM TRUCK BRAKE LINES. I PLAN TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE SET THIS SPRING WITH A SET OF STAINLESS STEEL ONES BUT REALLY WOULD PREFER THAT GM DO IT, SINCE THEY ARE THE ONES WHO MADE THE BRAKE LINES OUT OF SUBSTANDARD MATERIALS TO BEGIN WITH. *TR
