Left parking lot, brakes failed. No warning. When repaired bleeder was rusted into caliper. Spare tire is rusted into place also.

Applied brakes and pedal went to floor and all the brake fluid drained out. Turns out all the brake lines are corroded. The only possible resolution is to repalse all of the brake lines this is clearly a dangerous design defect.
