Windshield wiper arm is wearing through brake line, causing a loss of brakes. Dealer installed a retainer to prevent contact between brake line and windshield wiper arm, but defect has reoccurred twice even after retainer was installed.

When coming down mountain grades and applying the brakes, the brakes smell like burning plastic. When pulling over can see smoke coming from brakes. Brakes were cleaned on 8/15/97 for brake noise. Consumer is still experiencing problem with brakes. The truck is being looked at by dealer at this time.
