Mission kills brakes, and the brake fluid is usually the first thing that gives up. Heat from the braking transfers through the pads, to the (brake) pistons, and into the brake fluid. Once your brake fluid heats up, it absorbs moisture rather quickly and becomes compressible.

Your brake pedal would then get soft to start, spongey a little later, and then it'll outright fail as it doesn't give you any pedal pressure at all. No pedal pressue = no brakes.
