Anybody here ever had their brakes give while driving?

Happened to me last Friday night while driving home doing around 110Kph along SLEX at around 2.30am. There was very little traffic until I got to Sucat where I saw a number of trucks ahead - although not on my lane. I decided to slow down a bit by tapping the brake pedal. Kaso, when I tapped the pedal there was no resistance - sumagad almost sa floor yung pag-apak ko - and, of course, di nag-slow down yung car.

First reaction was understandably "oh sh1t!" while my heart jumped to my throat and my body felt cold all over. Then instinct kicked in and I started downshifting. Only when I got to a more manageable speed - around 30-40kph - did I try the brakes again. Saka ko lang naramdaman na merong konting kagat pa - around 15-20% - when I step on the pedals.

Exit agad ako ng alabang and sa national highway nalang takbo ko until laguna. Had the car checked out the day after; turns out kelangan lang pala ng repair kit nung brake master.

Thank God there was very little traffic that time and that I got home without a scratch.
