Brakes don't fail. Power assist may but you have manual brakes as. Back up.

Also brakes are valved in such a way that you have two systems, front left and rear right and then front right and rear left.

Losing power assist can be very disconcerting. Same as power steering. Feels almost like you have nothing when you do.

But to actually lose braking ability is a very odd and unique failure and then to regain normal function later.

Good luck.
