Consumer Description

MY CLUTCH STARTED SQUEAKING WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN DEPRESSING THE CLUTCH, THE BRAKE PEDAL MOVES TOWARD THE DRIVERS SIDE AND DOWN. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, I NOTICED THE SPOT WELDS THAT HOLD THE CLUTCH AND BRAKE ASSEMBLY TO CAR WERE BROKEN AND STARTING TO SEPARATE FROM THE FIREWALL. EVENTUALLY, THE WELDS WILL FAIL AND COMPLETELY REMOVE THE ASSEMBLY FROM THE FIREWALL. THUS, CLUTCH AND BRAKING ABILITIES WILL BE GONE AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR
