you probably need to bleed the brakes to remove air.Takes two people. make sure reservoir is full.have helper pump the brakes till they're tight and hold pedal down. loosen the bleeder valve on the backside of brake caliper or drum.air ad fluid will squirt out.tighte and repeat till no more air.make sure reservoir stays full ad repeat on all 4 brakes. If that does't help then th master cylider is probably bad. Hope this helps.

If there is no leaks and the level of the brake fluid level doesn't drop the problem is the master cylinder piston seals, which are easy to replace, but you will have to bleed the system when finished, but check the most obvious, is there enough fluid in the reservoir ?

Possible damage when pads were changed?
Check fluid level.
Look for leaks.
Bleed the system.
If the above don't cure it, you're looking at a bad cylinder somewhere.

Miss-assembled. Could also be rotors are warped.
