Default Brake Question

When i was driving to the gym today all of a sudden it felt like my brakes when out because i had to push the pedal all the way to the floor to stop. when i parked i looked to see if anythign was leaking under the hood and under the truck but i found nothing. when i got home i found that i had absolutley no brake fluid in the resevoir. i know i filled it up less than a year ago and i wasnt sure if it could just disapate or if i have a leak that i just cant find. my abs and BRAKE light are on and although i filled everything up the lights wont go off and the brakes still feel alittle soft. i replaced the pads and rotors about 5 months ago so i know they are not the problem. what do yall think

i appreciate the help

eric

You got a leak somewhere. Just adding fluid after a no pedal episode won't help much without bleeding the entire system. Then you can look for the leak.
