Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Hydraulic clutch cylinder has been replaced 3 times on this vehicle. i believe this is a serious safety problem. depressing the clutch pedal forces the hydraulic clutch master cylinder to detach from the "firewall" mounting and you are unable to shift gears. the master cylinder housing is constructed of plastic with a quarter-turn (by hand!) locking thread. over time, the plastic threads fatigue and break loose from the firewall. this is very poor engineering and absolutely needs to be addressed. |
