Since my crystal ball is broken, only an ispection of the car will tell you what you need to know. It could be a leaking caliper, wheel cylinder, master cylinder, brake line, or who knows what.

Because its leaking from somewhere. Inspect the brake system through the whole car, and look for where the fluid is coming out. It has to be going somewhere.

LOL. I love threads like this. Yes, you do have to do some work even though we can help diagnose the problem.Because its leaking from somewhere. Inspect the brake system through the whole car, and look for where the fluid is coming out. It has to be going somewhere.
After you find what appears to be the leak, clean it very well, then sprinkle talcum powder and drive for 5 minutes or so. You should then be able to see where exactly where is. Change/fix the item and you should be good to go.
