Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On random occasions, the clutch pedal looses pressure. it engages and disengages very close to floor. pressing the clutch pedal is very soft until it is almost completely depressed. the situation is random and typically last 5 to 10 minutes and then corrects itself. i have taken the car to the nissan dealer to have it inspected, but it was not acting faulty at the time and they claimed there was no problem, no tsb or recalls. i have called to notify them again that it still occurs and they suggest that i bring it in when it happens, but since it comes and goes, this is not practical. it does seem to be related to when the car is hot from either city traffic or idling for an extended period of time. there are several threads on this topic at www.nissanclub.com for the altima, with many owners experiencing the same problem and the same results from the dealer. some have found resolution be replacing the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder. *tr |
