I was just getting ready to leave the car wash. I pressed the brake padal to put the truck in gear, a second later the padal went to the floor, thought it was air in the line. Tried a few more times then got out of the truck to look for the leak, found (steel line) drivers side rusted. Had truck towed to shop, as I could not drive it. They found heavy rust on all brake lines in the front, the control arms also have heavy rust. Thank god I was not in traffic as I am sure I would have crashed. The shop is replacing all front brake lines and are going to inspect all other lines ie: All brake lines to back, all fuel lines. Parking brake failed as well. How did this truck pass nys inspection? truck was purchased 3/30/2006 from dealer facility #7096646 a&a used car sales Inc. 969 sunrise hwy, brightwaters, NY 11706 nys inspected by station 7099758
