Description of the problem | The brake line burst as i was shifting into drive could not stop vehicle, shifted it into park and was able to stop before hitting someone. Why are these lines not made of stainless steel? Better yet why is this agency not doing anything about this? They jump all over a key switch that may cause a problem but do nothing for something as important as be able to safely stop our vehicles. |
