Mycar just hit the 50k mark so its not under warranty. I bled the brakes and it still does not work. I followed a hose that goes to the brake booster to the front of the car and it seemed to be leaking. This car has been nothing but problems. Now the passenger restraint failure thing came on. Im so frustrated I just wanna get rid of it. I love how the car drives and look but hate all these problems.

Sounds like you may have a faulty Brake Booster. If your fluuid was empty enough to have to refil with a newbottle then its possible your booster may be leaking on the inside and typically when you have a booster failure or leak the brake pedal will be very difficult to depress to engage the brakes.
+1 on the brake booster. Worst case would be a leak between the booster and the fluid reservoir, the booster could be full of fluid.
I would see the dealer.
