Brake lines should not rust out, the owners life is at risk. Saving a few pennies on materials is not work some ones life!

rusty fuel lines

While replacing the rusted out oil cooler lines, I noticed the fuel lines are severely rusted as well, but not leaking yet. These lines should never, ever, rust out!

What kind of steel is used in these crappy lines anyway?

I plan on installing stainless steel lines to replace the junk GM used!

Don't expect me to ever buy a new Chevy truck again, unless the brake, fuel, and transmission lines are made out of quality stainless steel!!

This is totally unacceptable GM!!
