It sounds like there might be air in your brake lines, which can cause the brakes to feel spongy and unresponsive. You can try bleeding the brake lines to remove the air. However, if you're not comfortable doing this yourself, I would recommend taking your car to a professional mechanic as this is a safety-critical issue. Please let us know how it goes or if you have any other questions.
