Caller stated brake lines and fuel lines were rusty. Caller's wife was driving and the brake light came on, and when caller checked, there was no fluid in the master cylinder. The brake pedal went to the floor. Caller found a hole in the front brake line. Caller noticed that the fuel line was rusting as well. Dealer and manufacturer stated warranty expired, and there was nothing they could do for him. Caller was taking vehicle to a mechanic to get the front brake line fixed.
