I PURCHASED THE TRACKER 6 DAYS AGO AND THE BRAKE LINES BROKE 5 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE. I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT 5PM ON THURSDAY 8/17/17 AND LEFT ONE STOP LIGHT TO DRIVE UP A HILL TO ANOTHER STOP LIGHT. THE BRAKE LINES BROKE WHILE DRIVING IN THIRD GEAR AT 25MPH AS I WAS DECREASING MY SPEED TO STOP AT THE SECOND LIGHT. MY CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE PASSED INSPECTION BUT IT DID AND MY SAFETY WAS IN JEOPARDY EVERY MOMENT I DROVE THINKING THE CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. THE BRAKE PADS WERE WORN DOWN COMPLETELY, SO ITS METAL ON METAL. THE ROTORS ARE SHOT AND RUSTED. THE FUEL LINES AND BRAKES LINES ARE RUSTED, THE TRANSMISSION IS LEAKING AND THE DIFFERENTIAL IS ALSO LEAKING. THE CAR NEEDS $1300 IN REPAIRS

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MILES PER HOUR ON A RURAL ROAD, THERE WAS A LOUD BANG FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR, IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY SHAKING, RATTLING AND A SWERVE TO THE RIGHT. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN TO A LOCAL AUTO SHOP WHERE AN INSPECTION REVEALED THAT THE FRONT SUSPENSION CROSS MEMBER HAD SNAPPED IN HALF, DUE TO EXTENSIVE CORROSION DAMAGE. THE MECHANIC THEN TOLD ME THAT CHEVY HAD INSTITUTED AN INTERNAL CAMPAIGN #06186 IN 2007 TO ADDRESS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH CROSS MEMBERS THAT WERE NOT CORRECTLY PROTECTED AGAINST CORROSION EFFECTING MODEL YEARS 1999-2004. THE CROSS MEMBER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.
