I purchased a pre-owned, low mileage 1996 Grand Marquis Mercury ls[xxx] from a local car dealer in January 2000. The car was in immaculate condition with only 57800 miles on the odometer. November,2003, while driving the car, I lost all braking.my local repair shop fixed the problem[brake line failure].while at my state inspection in March,04, the brake line "blew" out again while the technician was testing the brakes. I feel this is a very serious safety factor. I value my life and I feel there should be a re-call on this problem. So far, repair bills total over $500. This is a great automobile except for the brake problem I am experiencing. Updated 07/26/2012 information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
