I just called 1-800 Nissan 1 and they said that my vehicle does qualify.

My vehicle was having "sticking clutch pedal" issues at the track Friday night. I'm glad Nissan is taking care of this in an orderly fashion.

Thanks for the notification people.

I am now going to call my local dealer.

Well, mine is scheduled to go in on Wednesday evening and it will take Thursday to fix it. They said it's first come first serve so they asked me to get it in asap. I was like it better be fixed correctly!

I just got back from the dealer and they said they would have to keep the car to check it out. I could have it back by tomorrow.

They didn't give me rental car though...did anybody else get one?

I was going to call 1800Nissan to see if the dealer was supposed to give me a rental car...

if your clutch is sticking, fight the **** out of them man... (if not, maybe you're ok?)

keep calling 1-800-nissan-1 until your fingers are numb, insist that you have the problem and they need to add your VIN to the list.

do you have to take your car back to the same place you bought it to get it fixed? i havent checked to see if my car fits in yet but if it does then i HAVE to know the answer to my question... i dont feel like driving over 1300 miles to get my clutch fixed

edit **slave cylinder, sorry**

Hey, guys.... just so you know the techs are getting paid jack sh**t on this recall.... take care of you techs, they take care of your car.. you wouldn't believe how far 20 bucks go... as far as time expectancy, be prepared to drop the car off first thing in the morning and see it by the end of the day (depending on part availability) tranny needs to be removed and clutch system bled... it's a bi*ch...


I had said yesterday that I was going to get it done 2day, but my pedal does not stick and I'll wait for an aftermarket clutch to come up so I can get that swapped at the same time....

How hard is it to adjust the clutch pedal? I have always felt mine engages too high off the floor.

Well i'm on the list
What's the big difference in swithching to MOTUL fluid v.s. the stock fluid?

If it's that much better what should i be looking to buy? And where should i buy from?

Cheers

Kevin
