You have a leak in the brake system, need to check the medal brake lines that run through the frame rail and goes to the back wheels, It is common for those to rust into towards the back. If lines are okay then check the wheel cylinders. If you are not low on brake fluid then you probley have a bad master cylinder.

The brake pedal goes to the floor and they act as if they're pulsating?
Sounds like a bad booster. If you can't pump up the brakes to get a firm pedal while engine on, you might want to have it checked. If they're ABS brakes and you hold the pedal firmly, it should feel like they're pulsating but the pedal shouldn't just go to the floor. Could be the master cylinder.
How to tell if you need your brakes replaced?
The best way to tell when you need brakes is by squeaking, when the brakes are rubbing against the metal, when your brake pedal goes all the way to the floor and when you are running out of break fluid.

Check the caliper slides (may be frozen) should slide freely to compensate for brake pad wear

You need to bleed the brakes.
Sound comes from the Front Left Wheel. But When pressing the brake pedal the sound goes off. When pressing the gas pedal again the sound is coming. Please suggest you the problem It is 2001 Elantra?
well that is a warning sighn they do to let you know your brakes are getting down there meaning time to get new ones I dont agree with that if it were the brakes then you would here it when you apply the brakes. If you hear it when you are on the gas then it could be the cv-shaft. If it is then it could cost you around 200 - 350 dollars.
Why brake pedal goes to the floor when system has no leaks?
Could be low brake fluid or just worn brakes in need of replacement. Could also be a faulty master cylinder.
2005 Envoy changed pads bled lines no leaks brakes work at half pedal but pedal goes to the floor. ABS kicks in after half of pedal what is the problem?
Ensure that the wheel speed sensor/ABS sensor has been re installed properly at the wheels. Re-bleed brakes starting from the rear and then finish with the drivers side front.
Your 2003 Nissan Frontiers brake pedal goes all the way to the floor and you have new brake pads and plenty of fluid What could the problem be?
try pumping up the brakes and see if that will give you a harder or higher pedal. sounds to me like you need to have the brakes bled properly to remove air from the system
What is the reason of when you apply brakes the brake pedal goes down?
If sitting still in your car with the engine running you can apply the brakes and the pedal slowly goes towards the floor you have a defective brake master cylinder. The only repair is to replace the master cylinder. This is a very dangerous situation and must be repaired immediately. Failure to replace the master cylinder may result in an accident.
