Transmission Not Go Into Gear Problems of Nissan 370Z

At around the MD border, when driving home to NJ from TN, the clutch stuck to the floor. I couldn't change out of 6th gear, so I had to drive from that point without slowing enough to have to change gears or stopping. After I got off at my exit and hit a stop light, I forced it out of 6th gear before it stalled, then pumped the clutch (pressing it then lifting it back up with my foot) until I was able to get it into 1st then 3rd gear and I drove it most of the way to cherry hill Nissan in 3rd gear. At the light next to the dealership, pumped the clutch until I got it into first gear and could not change gears anymore. I had to drive the car into a parking spot then stall the engine by holding the brakes. The clutch sticking to the floor has happened to me a few times before, normally on long drives, but I was always able to pump the clutch a few times and it would return to normal. This was the first time I could not get it out of gear while driving. Being stuck in a gear is pretty scary. The concentric slave cylinder (csc) failure causes this problem. It has even happened on the 350z and the gt-r. Apparently, this is a very common problem with these cars. The first complaint on NHTSA was filed on 09/18/2010, and there have been a lot of complaints since then. Someone, please conduct a safety investigation.
