Checking Brake Fluid Level

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Check fluid level in reservoir tank. It should be between Max and Min lines on reservoir tank.
Visually check around the reservoir tank for leaks.
If fluid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.
