No brakes

Yesterday i noticed the brakes being really soft, i knew i had a problem and was heading to autozone anyway. by the time i got there i had to put my foot all the way to the floor and downshift to stop..asked inside and they said it is prolly a master cylinder, so i replaced it and the pads...pedal is still way soft not much change...any ideas?

u still have the chance of a bad caliper or wheel cylinder. start with the right rear and bleed the entire system, sounds like u may still have air in there.

I'd check that first. My prelude did it and all I had to do was refill it with brake fluid.
