2003 Chevrolet Suburban 1500

WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 55MPH WHEN I SAW A DEER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT DIDN'T RESPOND PROPERLY. INSTEAD, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT NEARLY TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE TOOK A LONG TIME TO SLOW TO A STOP. I BEGAN DRIVING AGAIN AND TESTED THE BRAKES; THEY DID NOT WORK PROPERLY. I HAD TO PRESS THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE VEHICLE TO BRAKE, AND EVEN THEN IT TOOK A VERY LONG TIME TO STOP THE VEHICLE. IT WAS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT THIS POINT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL FOUR BRAKE LINES HAD RUSTED AND RUPTURED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STORED INDOORS AND DRIVEN VERY LITTLE IN THE WINTER MONTHS. THIS INCIDENT UPSET ME GREATLY AS IT PUT MY FAMILY IN SERIOUS DANGER. I HAVE SUBSEQUENTLY LEARNED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH GM VEHICLES OF THAT MODEL YEAR. I HAVE OWNED 25 AUTOMOBILES OVER 45 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD SUDDEN BRAKE FAILURE. I AM CONCERNED THAT SOMEONE WILL BE INJURED OR KILLED, IF THIS HASN'T ALREADY OCCURRED, AND I IMPLORE YOU TO CONSIDER A SAFETY RECALL. THANK YOU. *TR *JS

I WAS ON MY WAY TO THE GROCERY STORE WITH MY TWO CHILDREN AND I NOTICED WHILE GOING TO LEAVE MY DRIVEWAY THAT WHEN I WENT TO BRAKE THERE WAS A LOT OF PLAY ROOM THAT WAS NOT PREVIOUSLY THERE. I WENT TO TEST THEM AGAIN AND HAD TO PUSH DOWN ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO GET OUR VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I THEN PARKED THE VEHICLE UNTIL MY HUSBAND GOT HOME. AFTER HAVING OUR VEHICLE LOOKED OVER A COUPLE TIMES WE WERE ABLE TO SEE THAT THE BRAKE LINES WERE CORRODED IN SOME AREAS. *TR
