Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The brake line has failed. There is a pin hole leak. The metal brake line is between the gas tank and the frame of the vehicle. It has rusted out so much that it caused the line to fail. The line is hidden in the frame, which doesn't provide the adequate amount of space for the road wash to actually clean the line. It site on the frame and rusts away. This is a big safety issue if i was driving at speeds of greater than 25mph or started braking when i normally do. It happened in my drive way so no accident, but this can't be the right way to bring that line back to the rear of the vehicle. This line controls all the rear brakes.
