Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: During heavy traffic or moderate acceleration, my 2007 nissan 350z clutch pedal will fall to the floor, causing the car to lose power to the wheels. the first incident was reported to sutherlin nissan at 1,500 miles, and the clutch slave cylinder was replaced under warranty at 11,500 miles. within one day after getting the car back, the same problem showed up, during a traffic jam. the problem was reported again, and after 8,500 miles and several complaints to the dealer, and finally nissan of north america, the car is in the shop again. the dealer refused to try and fix the vehicle again until i filed a complaint with nissan of north america. this time the problem became so severe, you could not drive the car in moderate to heavy traffic, without the fear of losing the clutch pedal pressure. the problem started in march of 2007, the first repair was in early summer, 2007, the problem has continued, and gotten much worse since then, making it dangerous in heavy traffic, and is now at the dealer for repair, as of november 17th. there have been so many clutch pedal pressure failures, i have lost count, but estimate the failures have been in the hundreds, as the problem occurs several times daily, during commutes in heavy traffic, which i will no longer drive the car in until the problem is corrected. *tr
