Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My car is a 2001 4-cylinder 5-speed manual transmission. the engine is too small for the car's weight. i had to have the clutch replaced after only 24,000 miles, which was not covered under the warranty (cost was over $1000). the dealer insisted that i caused the problem by "bad driving". i have driven a stick for well over 12 years, and never had to replace a clutch on any other car. *jb |
