Default brakes lose power...can feel no pressure

my 92 accord is doing something weird....I brake and it feels normal and then all of the sudden I feel the brakes get weak and then I feel myself having to push all the way down on the brake pedal and I feel no resistance or very weak pressure and then it wabbles slightly out of control to a stop. I checked the fluid and it has plenty in there. I am wondering if I should try bleeding the brakes. Or my booster could be bad. What do you guys think.

I had the same problem with my brakes on my 98 eclipse, i bled them and go air in there and nothing at all no pressusre or nothin.If you have bled your brakes recently i would actually bleed them agian this time having two people,one person pushing on the brake while you bleed em.If it is ABS im ot sure how you would bleed ABS.

It's your master cylinder, I had the same problem about a month or so ago. Easy to replace yourself too, just take your time and be patient.
