Consumer Description

I'VE BEEN HEARING THIS SQUEAKING SOUND COMING FROM MY CLUTCH FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS. APPROXIMATELY A MONTH AGO I WAS DRIVING HOME WHEN I FELT/HEARD A POPPING SOUND. MY CLUTCH PEDAL WAS NOW ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. I ASSUMED MY CLUTCH WAS GONE BUT THE CAR STILL DROVE HOME I WAS 1/2 MILE FROM HOME. I DROVE SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY HOME. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MAZDA TODAY AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY CLUTCH BRACKET IS BROKEN. THE ESTIMATE TO REPLACE THIS IS ROUGHLY 500$. *TR
