Default brake issues

hey guys ,
for the last week or so been hearing like a hissing noise while releasing the brake. Well yesterday i heard a kinda grinding noise i thought it was coming from the front well i changed the front brake pads and that seemed to be fine. except a short while later i heard the grind again (and a squeal) so i figured o well mabey it was the back, well on the way to get the brake pads the brake went all the way to the floor i was able to stop but i did nearly crap my pants. now i was able to make it home but im confused as hell. please advise

Sounds like it could be the master cylinder. I would *not* drive this vehicle until you get that sorted.

Good luck.
