I had to have the entire braking system removed and redone, including the rotors, calipers and all the brake lines. I only had 56,000 miles on the vehicle. It is parked outside but on asphalt. I had maintained the vehicle properly. I would like to know how to contact the Chevrolet company to file a complaint. I have not taken pictures but can include them in e-mails to anyone interested who can give me advice.
