Have an '01 Honda Civic and when it was only 4 yrs old I was on my way to New Mexico and the clutch went out. Totally unexpected especially since I have a '95 Mitsubishi Eclipse and it is still on its original clutch. I bought a new clutch and my father in-law put it on for me, but I found so many problems with it at the same time. This car is a Lemon and if anyone is thinking about buying one I say buyer beware! This is a horrible car!
