Issue

On certain vehicles equipped with a manual transmission, clutch diaphragm springs may crack or become damaged, which could result in the driver being unable to shift gears, or potentially result in a loss of motive power. Depending on traffic conditions and the driver’s reactions, these issues could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will install a pedal travel limiter and pedal switch.
