The first thing I would check would be your brake master cylinder fluid level. If it is low add dot 3 brake fluid to fill it back up, and check it in a day to week later and see if the fluid level is the same if it is not then something is leaking and you need to find out where the brake fluid is going.

Suggested Repair
Check the brake master cylinder fluid level. If it is low, add DOT 3 brake fluid and recheck in a day to a week. If the level drops, find and repair the brake fluid leak.
