Rear brakes failed after driving 31 miles from home. Told it was a common occurrence on workhorse chassis. Rear brakes were replaced, and front brakes serviced. Drove another 30 miles and then the front brakes failed. Am concerned that if I continue driving this unit I may have further problems. This sounds like a manufacturing problem.
