General Motors 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2004 Chevrolet Silverado Brake Failure at 85,000 miles Detroit Michigan

Was driving 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4 when brakes failed!  Was very fortunate I was only going 25 miles per hour.  Two separate brake lines rusted through causing a massive loss of brake fluid as brakers were applied.  As stated, was very fortunate was going at low speed and was able to stop vechicle by pressing emergence brake.

Reported to GM, NTSB, and congressional members of Congree.  Did not receive any response from NTSB; however, Senator Mitch McConnell was able to get a response from the NTSB after 14 months of review.  NTSB response was...  there has been 800 plus vechicles reported with problem; however, since there has not been any reported deaths, the NTSB would not pursue.

Bottle line... people must die before our government will act.
