After parking for about 20 minutes, started the truck and the ABS brake light came on. A warning on the screen said something to the affect...brake above 62 miles failure. Engine light came on. I started driving and noticed no brake pressure. Pressed brake hard, all the way, then truck started to slow down. Luckily there was nothing in front of me or I would have hit it. I checked for break fluid leak under the truck, no leaks. I opened the hood, no leaks noted. I turned off the truck. Waited a minute and started it again. Same thing...no breaks. Break warning lights came on again. I finally called a tow truck for repair.

I was driving down the interstate when traffic began to build up. As I tried to slow down I noticed an extended delay in stopping. No warning lights came on at this point and I continued to drive. I then exited the interstate and stopped at a local grocery store. I started my vehicle back up and began driving to school. I was driving around 40 mph and it was then that my vehicle alarm went off and screen advised that my brakes had failed. I could not stop my vehicle and had no brakes. I then pushed the pedal all the way to the floor board. My truck slowed enough for me to get it into my school's parking lot. I then engaged the emergency parking break and notified roadside assistance.
