I WAS DRIVING TO THE LOCAL SUPERMARKET AND APPLIED MY BRAKES. SUDDENLY THEY WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I COULD NOT STOP AND HAD TO SWERVE OUT OF THE WAY OF A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME TO AVOID A COLLISION. I EVENTUALLY STOPPED BY APPLYING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN APPLYING BRAKES TO STOP THE YUKON IT FAILS TO STOP AND THEN ABS KICKS IN CAUSING BRAKE PEDAL TO VIBRATE AND LOSS OF PRESSURE IN BRAKE PEDAL THEN TRUCK DOES NOT STOP IT SLIDES. I HAVE REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER DID NOT HELP, TRUCK NEEDS ALL NEW BRAKE LINES DUE TO RUST. I HAVE QUICKLY MOVE AROUND CARS TO PREVENT A ACCIDENT, DUE TO THIS BRAKE FAILURE. SINCE I AM IN SOUTH FLORIDA GM WON'T FIX THIS KNOWN MANUFACTURE DEFECT BECAUSE SF IS NOT A "SALT BELT" STATE, BUT I LIVE ON THE BEACH AND THE SALT WATER HAS STARTED TO HAVE A MAJOR IMPACT JUST LIKE THE NORTHERN STATES ON THESE FAULTY BRAKE LINES. THE BREAK LINES ARE COVERED IN RUST AND THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND GM SHOULD FIX ALL VEHICLES WITH THIS KNOWN DEFECT NOT JUST SOME. THIS 2002 YUKON IS SLE WITH A 5.3L VIN Z. *TR

THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY RISK AND SHOULD BE EVALUATED. *TR
