You might want to replace the front rubber brake lines. On the inside of the brake hose they disintegrate, which causes the fluid to go thru the line but not return when pedal is pressed. If it releases when car sits and cools off .then this is probably the culprit.GOOD LUCK

What causes squeaky brakes?

If your brakes are squeaking, that means the pads are wearing thin. When you hit the brake pedal, the pads push against the rotor to create friction and slow down the vehicle. Over time these pads wear away, and when they get thin enough they make a squealing noise. This noise notifies you that you need to have new brakes installed as soon as possible. If you keep driving without replacing them, the pads will eventually wear down completely and then every time you hit the brake pedal metal will scrape against your rotors. This can be very damaging and dangerous, so when the brakes start to squeal have them looked at right away.
