LOST VEHICLE BRAKING BECAUSE OF BRAKE LINE TUBING CORROSION. I NARROWLY AVOIDED REAR ENDING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME BY QUICKLY CHANGING LANES INTO THE LEFT TURN LANE. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE BRAKE TUBING WAS NOT GALVANIZED AS THE PITTING CORROSION WAS SEVERE... THE CAR IS ONLY 10 YEARS OLD. I HOPE OTHERS WILL NOT BE EXPOSED TO THIS SUDDEN LOSS OF A MAJOR SAFETY SYSTEM ON THE VEHICLE... THE BRAKES!*JB

Electrical System
SHORT IN REAR RIGHT TAIL LIGHTS; RIGHT TURN SIGNAL DOESN'T FLASH WHEN ANY LIGHTS (PARKING OR HEADLIGHTS) ARE TURNED ON. NOTICED SAME PROBLEM WITH MANY OTHER SEVILLES ON THE ROAD. DEALER HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF ANY PROBLEMS. WORRIED THAT THIS WILL CAUSE REARENDING ACCIDENTS OR PEOPLE PULLING OUT IN FRONT OF US WHEN THEY CAN'T SEE OUR TURNSIGNAL, OR WHEN THEY CAN'T SEE THE BRAKELIGHT OR TURNSIGNAL TO LET THEM KNOW WE ARE SLOWING DOWN. PLEASE HELP.
