Two weeks ago the right rear metal brake line busted because of it rusting through.the line was replaced and a second metalic line busted because of the same reason. This line is a main line which runs from the master cylinder to the rear of the car. A third line is also ready to rust through that line also runs from the master cylinder to the rear of the car.the car has no other rust just the three brake lines.they are only rusted in a certain area not the whole length, around two to three foot from the rear.
