While driving driver applied the brakes and the pedal went to the floor. Driver was able to stop. Then, noticed that fluid was leaking from underneath the vehicle. The pedal was hard when pressed. Driver took vehicle to the dealer for inspection, and mechanic determined that the brake booster needed to be replaced.
