Mine did that after the brakes were bled, I was driving along at 50mph heading towards red traffic lights! managed to stop, then pumped on the pedal and they have been fine for 2 years now...
Look for leaks
Check the servo and master cylender too
I guess the level is ok, or the warning light would be on on the dash?
