Pontiac Grand Am Power Train Clutch Assembly Pedal/linkage Safety Report | Jan 26, 2007
Reported on Jan 26, 2007
| A FEW TIMES, AS I ENGAGED THE CLUTCH, I FELT A TUGGING; I THOUGHT I HAD CAUGHT THE TOE OF MY SHOE ON THE FLOOR MAT. WITHIN A COUPLE OF WEEKS, I WAS DRIVING AND THE CLUTCH PEDAL GRABBED TO THE FLOOR AND WOULD NOT COME UP. WHEN I HAD THE CAR TOWED, THEY SAID THAT THE CABLE BETWEEN THE CLUTCH AND PEDAL HAD DISENGAGED; HOWEVER, THERE WERE NO BROKEN PARTS. WITHIN A WEEK OF THE COMPANY PUTTING THE CABLE BACK IN PLACE, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. AT 3.5 YEARS AND 55,000 MILES, I HAD TO REPLACE THE MASTER CLUTCH CYLINDER BECAUSE THE CABLE WAS GETTING HOOKED UP IN THE CYLINDER. *JB | |
