Took veh. In for headlight alignment. Got into veh. To leave and the brake pedal went to the floorboard. Mechanic said the brake line had rusted through. He check and said all lines were completely rusted and needed to be replaced. The veh. Had to be towed to a chev. Dealer to bleed the line. Total cost including one caliper that was too rusted was $794.11. I had been traveling on the expressway moments prior to going to the service station. Had I not stopped there when I did, I have no doubt serious injuries would have occurred as the brake line rusted through.

The government has car makers trying to gain more fuel economy by having them make their vehicles smaller and lighter, but that is for cars almost only. So now that truck remain standard as before their head lights on dim are higher then the rear view mirror in the cars therefore causing blindness to the car driver. The gov. Should set a max. Height for headlights to be off the road when the vehicle is sitting on a level surface. And then the law allows some of these truck owners to jack their unit up even higher than standard to where the headlights or even above the roof of the cars and it very dangerous at night when you meet one coming or one pulls up behind you. Of course I know there will be nothing done on sometime like this until 100 people have wrecks and or killed or they run over someone for not being able to see them in the blinding lights of a standard high rise truck. Right?
