Description of the problem | Manual transmission gear shifter gets stuck in gear and will not shift out of gear while making gear shift change started happening at 19000 miles then at 25000 miles the clutch shattered into a 100 pieces makeing a loud bang and none stop chattering while driving in 3rd gear at 40mph on city street causing complete clutch failure an unable to shift into any gear after the clutch failure only leaving neutral available. Causing me to have to quickly coast and pull over 3 lanes and park before getting stuck in a moving lane. Dealer won't cover the faulty shattered clutch under its 36000 3 year bumper to bumper warranty. Saying it's normal wear and tear if it was normal wear and tear the clutch would be worn and intact and slipping not shattered in pieces due to the sever failure of the clutch the flywheel and release throw out bearings were also severely damaged and needed replacing as well |
