F-150 6-cyl

I have been driving since 1964 and have never experienced a total loss of all braking power in any.vehicle in my life until last Sunday. I exited from the church parking lot and pulled out onto the main drive headed home. As I approached a signal light at a "T" intersection traveling across the top of the "T" right to left, the light turned yellow so I applied my brakes to slow down, only to find that the brake pedal traveled all the way to the floor without any hesitation and the car continued on its path without slowing at all. I immediately released my foot and permitted the pedal to rise to its normal position and I pressed on it again, only to get the exact same result. I immediately down shifted to first gear and pushed down on the emergency brake pedal which slowed the car to a stop before I entered the intersection. I shifted into park and tried pressing on the brake pedal to "pump up the braking system" and got some relief, however as soon as the light change and I put the car back in drive, all resistance from the brake pedal system quit and I was back in free fall. I managed to get home using manual shifting and emergency brake assistance. The braking system never returned to any form of even trying to control the forward momentum of the vehicle. I checked the internet to find that there were pages of people entering reports of similar issues with their F150's and yet there was no report of any recall or safety issues reported. Now I may be wrong but I thought I was told back in drivers ed back 1965 the the braking system in cars had an X configuration so if something happened to the brake lines that feed the front right to rear left, that the front left and rear right wheels would still be there to get to you stopped. Well I can assure you that when the little 18" rubber hose that connects the metal hydraulic line to the front right disk caliber on my car split open, NOTHING worked not even a warning light came on until no brake fluid existed.
