Brake Problem ?!?!?!

Anyone, have a problem with thier brake pedal going all the way down to the floor? My drive to work was fine in the AM but the drive home is where this happened. It felt like there was an air pocket in the brake line, but everything is still stock. After I got home I was able to pump pressure back in the line, but is this going to happen again??? Anyone else experience this? HELP!!!

I experience on a daily basis. You can pump the brake with the car off all you want, but it still sinks back down. I thought the brake booster was malfunctioning, but there is a way to test it in the owners manual and it was fine. When its time to replace the pads, im going to switch over to better fluid and get some stainless steel line.

These stock brakes fade too fast..and I've heard so many bad things about them from this forum! I'm definitely going to upgrade mine too!...pads, lines, fluid, and rotors. Any suggestions?
