Clutch problem: 5 speed manual transmission. Clutch sticks after pressing it in, when it comes back up. This happens when temperature is cold. Dealer checked out 4 times, could not reproduce problem. Independent mechanic found problem at once and states that clutch bearing needs lubricated otherwise will wear prematurely. Dealer refuses to do this. Light problem: Problem exactly the same as 99-00 recall NHTSA campaign id: 00V405000. Year 2001 should get included in recall. Dealer "fixed" problem once by "cleaning the socket" problem reoccured. Required recall fix is to replace bulb and socket and not "clean socket".
