NHTSA Complaint #10730152 — 2009 NISSAN 370Z

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ONE MORNING WHEN MY CLUTCH PEDAL BECAME LIMP. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY GETTING READY TO SHIFT INTO 6TH GEAR WHEN I HAD NO CLUTCH RESISTANCE! I NEARLY CRASHED DUE TO THE LACK OF ENGAGEMENT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS VERY SAME ISSUE WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY AT 30,000 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP EITHER NEVER REPLACED THE PARTS THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE REPLACED AT 30K MILES OR THEY HAVE FAILED AGAIN, JUST 35K MILES LATER. THESE PARTS ARE THE MASTER CYLINDER AND SLAVE CYLINDER IN THE TRANSMISSION. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH 2009-2015 MODELS. ACTUALLY, IT HAS BEEN GOING ON AS FAR BACK AS 2003 WITH THE 350Z, WHICH WAS NEVER ADDRESSED. I'M SELLING THE CAR AND HOPEFULLY THE BUYER DOESN'T CRASH AND DIE FROM IT. IF HE/SHE DOES, YOU SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE.
