Clutch Broken Problems of Nissan Altima

Clutch failure - repeated, temporary clutch failure. Frequency is unpredictable and random - sometimes months apart between occurances. Duration of occurance has not exceeded 10 minutes, then clutch behavior is normal and can drive normally. Petal "sticks" to floor and must be pulled up by hand in order to engage and change gears. All parts of clutch assembly have been replaced (petal, master and slave hyd. Cylinder, corroded bleeder valve) and problem continues to happen.

After 14,000 miles of use the clutch failed to engage the transmission. While driving up hill and shifting lost all drive gears and forward power. Stranded in traffic unable to get to the side of the road. Problem was that the clutch had burned out which required replacement of the clutch disc.

I own a 2005 Nissan se-r. On several occasions over the past 3 years I have owned the car, the clutch failed. As many others have stated,this was impossible to replicate , but a very serious and unsafe issue. We were getting no relief from our dealerships and the manufacturers. The clutch will sink to the floor and I was unable to engage into any gear except neutral. Tried to bring the car in, but the closest I got was a street away when the clutch engaged again. I knew if they can't duplicate it there was nothing they could do. At least when it was under warrantly. That was what I was told for the 3 years I had the car. I live in atlanta and travel on the major highways, trying to get over 5 lanes of traffic in neutral was very unsafe. I guess it was a good thing I have about 6 airbags in the car so when someone plowed into me, I won't die and maybe no one else will either. This was a real issue that many people stated on Nissan forums as well. Attention needed to be drawn to this issue.
