Consumer Description

HAD A SQUEAKY CLUTCH PEDAL FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS. YESTERDAY IT BECAME VERY HARD TO SHIFT INTO GEAR. I NOTICED WHEN THE CLUTCH WAS DEPRESSED, BOTH THE BRAKE AND CLUTCH PEDALS MOVED ABOUT 2" TO THE LEFT. LOOKING FURTHER, IT LOOKS LIKE THE SPORT WELD HAVE GIVEN WAY WHERE THE BRACE MOUNTS TO THE FIREWALL. RESEARCHING I FOUND MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. CAR IS ALMOST UNDRIVEABLE AND UNSAFE. *TR
