The recent cold snap here must have made brake lines more brittle. I work with 2 people who had their brake lines fail this same week - that is 3 trucks (2 Chevy 1 GMC) early 2000's to fail that I personally know of. I have seen on the 'net' a ground swell of complaints about brake line problems. My mechanic used to work for GM and said he was able to get a "brake line kit" from GM at a good rate - so they must be aware of the problem.
