DEPT MAINTAINS 17 FORD E-350 MINI SCHOOL BUSES, 1995 AND 1998 MODEL YEARS. THIS BRAKE HOSE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A RUSTED PORTION OF THE HOSE ASSEMBLY . THE AREA THAT RUSTED AWAY IS THE CRIMPED CONNECTION WHICH JOINS THE RUBBER HOSE TO THE STEEL FITTING END OF THE HOSE ASSEMBLY. THIS RUST IS NOT VISIBLE WHILE DOING A ROUTINE INSPECTION OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM BECAUSE IT IS COVERED BY A RUBBER SLEEVE!. APPARANTLY WATER/MOISTURE IS COLLECTING UNDER THIS RUBBER SLEEVE AND CORRODING THE STEEL CRIMPED AREA OF THE FITTING UNTIL THERE IS NO MORE OF A SECURE CONNECTION OF THE RUBBER HOSE TO THE STEEL , THEN WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED AND THE FLUID IS PRESSURIZED IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM THE RUBBER HOSE WILL BLOW AWAY FROM THE STEEL FITTING!...I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AS IT IS SUDDEN BRAKE LOSS, MULTIPLIED BY THE FACT THAT A ROUTINE PREVETIVE MAINTENANCE CHECK OF THE BRAKE HOSES DOES NOT REVEAL THE RUSTED/FAULTY CONNECTION BECAUSE OF THE RUBBER SLEEVE COVERING IT.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"1995","productMake":"FORD","productModel":"E-350","manufacturer":"Ford Motor Company"}]}]}
