When I hit the breaks I hear what sounds like air. The car does stop, but the sound of air is present everytime I hit the breaks. Why and what is causing that air like sound?

Check the power brake booster. It is on the firewall behind the master cylender. Have a helper depress the brakes while you listen for leaks. It could be the booster or the vacuum line going to it.

Let me know what you find.
