If your car has ABS and you got air in the ABS modulator block (I think thats what its called) only a Honda dealer can bleed it. Basically they have to activate the ABS system using their computer. This may have happened if you let the resevoir on your master get to low. This is exactly what happened to me when my car was sitting and I had a fluid leak from one of my calipers.

If you don't have ABS you probably have a leak somewhere in one of the lines or your master cylinder is bad.
