The consumer was showed a broken tab that was installed incorrectly. The line was also full of air. The consumer stated that he has to make certain the vehicle does not lurch forward because the clutch releases so close to the floor as to not rear end another driver. The clutch can not be feathered to get it started after shutting off on an uphill grade. The consumer stated that it is difficult to shift gears causing a pause that can result in being rear ended. The clutch was repaired at consumers expense.

  • Manual transmission

While making a stop by depressing the clutch, clutch did not disengage transmission, and vehicle stalled. Dealer has been contacted. Mechanic said that Pilot bearing on Pilot shaft is the weak link in the transmission. Pilot bearing failed, caused excessive wear on the Pilot shaft which caused the clutch plate to break, which prevents the clutch from disengaging. Part replaced by dealer.
