happened to me this morning. was first at a stop light and a bus was stopped in my lane up ahead after the intersection. when it turned green i started aggressively so i can get ahead and switch over and my clutch pedal stuck to the floor. i kept stepping on it and finally it went back up. it never happened to me before. mine's an 06 ~20k

I have a 2006 and I don't think the clutch has ever stuck, but I do notice almost every time it rains that the pedal feels kind of 'gummy' when I take my foot off of it, like it doesn't want to spring out with as much force as usual. So what happens is I end up over-revving a bit because the clutch seems to take longer to engage, but then it engages and I keep going. I haven't had any clutch burning issues, at least not that I could smell.

I had this problem back in April 2007. Clutch stuck to the floor in the middle of driving normally. It took the dealer 2 months to find out what was wrong with it and fix it. I still don't know what they replaced though, but it was done under warranty. Haven't had a problem since, but I haven't even driven my car sincethen either =/

I have a stock 05 32K that has this issue. Got it last summer and it stuck a couple times when launching. Had the dealer flush and check it. Seemed OK.
Brought the car out for the fisrt time this year, went about 10mph for 1/4 mile to my lane, stopped then tried to launch. Pedal came up about 3/4" and engine revved, clutch smelled realll bad. Temp was 38 deg, car temp was still pegged on cold. Can't see this being a boiling issue. Is it my master cylinder ? Clutch is fine everywhere else. I'm not sure what to try.

...heh...that's exactly why I got me one with an auto tranny! If you check out these threads SYSTEMATICALLY, you'll notice LOTSA peeves regarding MTs on our beasts. ON THE OTHER HAND, ATs ain't got EVEN ONE complaint!!!
That should be a tell-tale sign, guys!

Mines sticks too but after real hard runs. My clutch is weak right now.
