Description of the problem	About 2 months ago i was braking for a stop light. While i was braking (from about 35mph) i ran over some bumps in the road, at that time the pedal suddenly went to the floor. Luckily there was no one in font of me. I drove to a parking lot to park the car. The brake pedal had little resistance going to the floor as i pumped on the pedal. I had the car towed to the dealer to be serviced. The tow truck driver also mentioned the brakes are non existent at that time. The dealer could not find anything wrong with the brake system. However today (18nov2015) the car experienced the same issue. The conditions was wet. As i braked to a stoplight, i hit a bump and the pedal went to the floor. I felt the abs kick in for a split second. The car will be going back to the dealer for another inspection. I would suspect they wont find anything wrong.
