Silverado 3500 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 13 miles
2005 Chevy C1500 half ton pickup T was placed in storage for about a month. This vehicle was never used and had only 13 miles on the speedometer when recieved from the dealer. This was a company vehicle, and when out of storage it was discovered there was no brake fluid. The master cyclinder was completely dry. Took to a dealer and dealer could not find any leaks. Essentially, they could not find the cause.
