“Clutch master cylinder rod connects to clutch pedal with plastic bushing,the bushing wears out and clutch linkage falls off.if this happens while driving you are unable to press in the clutch pedal to disegage the clutch, therefore you are unable to stop the vehicle.this happened to me but luckily no one was in front of me and I was able to stop and kill engine.very poor setup for the clutch assembly.the cost of repairs is about $150.00 performing the repairs myself.”

“The parking brake equlizer is a c channel that connects the cable from the pedal assembly to the two cables going to the rear wheels. I have had two equlizers fail. The first one at38000 miles.

The dealer would not state exactly what caused the failure, but postulated that whatever was causing metal to be in the transmission pan was the cause. The manufacturer would not provide any assistance because they stated that the failure was due to abuse by the contact. …”
