driver side brake line off of caliper corrosion at connection

There should be a safety check on all brake line connections to the left and front caliper and the rear too. This may be a safety issue that could fail while traveling and cause a davastating effects if in traffic and the loss of brake fluid - due to a rupture line- should bleed out and the your vehicle would have grave issue stopping. Please pass on to the Dodge Safety Board to insure the message is sent to all Dodge Truck drivers to check their brake lines at caliper to minor brake leak and bulging lines that make be on the verge of failure.
