Complete brake failure. This is the third occasion that the brakes on my 2005 Hyundai Tucson have failed. So far all three of the incidents have occurred while trying to gradually brake from a speed of around 35 mph. The brake peddle travels all the way down as if there was no resistance and the car keeps on going. The only way that I was able to come to a skidding halt was by using the emergency brake lever. I have had the Hyundai dealership inspect the auto but they were not able to find anything that would cause the brakes not to work. Its a accident waiting to happen.
