You need brake fluid
The brakes are self-adjusting - however - if you do not operate the vehicle in reverse very often, or are in the habit of not using the emergency brake, they may not have been able to adjust themselves. Try driving in reverse and applying your brake pedal several times to see if that does not bring the pedal up. Also start routinely using the emergency brake when you park. Applying it also adjusts the rear brake shoes. If neither of these ideas work, the self-adjuster mechanism may have become 'frozen' from dis-use and may have to be freed up by a mechanic. ALSO - check the brake system master cylinder to ensure that the brake fluid is up to the proper level.
