Consumer Description

I WENT TO START MY CAR AND THE CLUTCH PEDAL WAS LOW. ONCE I WENT AROUND THE CORNER FROM MY HOUSE, THE PEDAL ALMOST FELL TO THE BOTTOM. SINCE I COULD NOT PUT IT IN THE NEXT GEAR, I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND PUSHED IT BACK INTO MY GARAGE. MY MECHANIC SAID IT WAS THE CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER. HE ALSO SAID THERE WAS A LOT OF BREAK FLUID IN THE TRANSMISSION COMING FROM THE CSC. I WENT ON 370Z PAGES AND THIS COMPLAINT IS ALL OVER THE PLACE. THERE ARE NUMEROUS FORUMS TO THIS ISSUE. LUCKILY I WAS NOT DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY OR I COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. IF THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A LONG TIME TO HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF CARS FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL, WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN FIXED? BILL WAS AROUND $1000.00. HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES SINCE REPLACING THE CSC BUT ONLY HAVE PUT ABOUT 4 THOUSAND MILES ON IT SINCE.
