Failure Date: 06/27/2014

Clutch bracket snapped while at stop sign. Unable to get car into gear.

2 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 04/19/2014

As I'm driving my clutch pedal gets stuck when it hits the floor and wouldnt up back up on its own and I would have to use my foot to tap it under to go back up. Clutch pedal seems to be leaking oil also. Also at times when I'm wanting to change gears the shift knob would grind gears. If I'm going at a fast speed it often keeps me from shifting to fifth gear and I would have to jump to sixth instead.
