There is a fitting for the brake line, mounted to a bracket behind the right front wheel. The rubber line popped off the pin that holds it in place, dumping the break fluid and leaving me with no brakes. I had hit the breaks to avoid hitting a dog. Fortunatly there was no immediate danger that would cause an accident. I was able to steer around the dog. If there had been a car that pulled out I wouldn't have had any chance to stop. This is the secont time this has happened. Last time I was taking the transmission out of park on an incline when the other side popped. I feel this is a serious problem.
