I went to move my vehicle from the front of my house to the drive way and it wouldn't stop, I pressed on the brake pedal and heard nothing but air as the brake pedal went straight to the floor. I stepped on the emergency brake to stop the vehicle and when I got out.. there was a huge puddle of brake fluid beneath the vehicle.

Twice in last week, driving at slow speed and "engine fail safe mode" light comes on. Lost power, braking, and steering. Forced to put car in neutral while car was rolling to restart. Rolled right thru stop sign. Restarted fine, luckily. In second event, almost got hit when turning left across oncoming traffic! started turn and couldn't stop turn due to loss of braking. Fortunately, first time I tried the restart in neutral and it worked, otherwise I would have been hit in second event or hit something since I couldn't steer.
