Brake Master Cylinder problems of the 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer

I was heading to a class when I noticed my clutch pedal went almost all the way to the floor. The clutch was still disengaging/engaging when I shifted so I made it to my destination. I was worried about driving it but I decided to try and see if it was still doing it, so I tried to back out of a spot but it would no longer go into gear and the clutch pedal was all the way to the floor. Turned out my brake master cylinder was faulty and I learned through online forums and friends that it was a common issue with the Lancer evolution. I was surprised at that and wondered why Mitsubishi would not issue a recall for faulty brake master cylinders. It dawned on me that most people with this type of car are the "do it yourself" kind of person and more than likely were fixed by the owners of the cars, therefor never reported through mechanics or dealerships. After the master cylinder was replaced, the throw out bearing retaining clip came loose and damaged the pressure plate. So now it is being replaced, and I believe it was all caused by the master cylinder. Had it worked properly, I never would have had these problems and spending all this money. What I am hoping is that more owners come forward with the same issue and report them, and that it doesn't happen to someone while they're driving on the freeway or stuck in traffic. They could potentially lose hydraulic power to the clutch system and brakes, resulting in a hazardous situation that could damage to property or cause injury or death.
