CLUTCH PEDAL STUCK TO THE FLOOR AT INTERSECTION WHILE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND READY TO ENGAGE FIRST GEAR TO GO. ANOTHER DRIVER HELPED ME PUSH MY CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. KEPT PUSHING CLUTCH BUT IT WOULD NOT COME BACK TO REGULAR POSITION. I WAS ABLE WITH MY HAND AFTER GETTING OUT IF THE CAR TO PULL THE CLUTCH PEDAL FORWARD AND IT WORKED AFTER THAT.
CLUTCH STICKS TO FLOOR AND WILL NOT COME BACK UP. I EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE AFTER THE CAR HAD BEEN SITTING ALL NIGHT ON A VERY COLD WINTER NIGHT IN UPSTATE NY. I WENT TO PUT THE CAR IN GEAR AND PULL OUT OF MY APARTMENT, BUT THEN THE CAR STALLED. I PUSHED THE CLUTCH PEDAL TO THE GROUND AND TRIED TO TAKE IT OUT OF GEAR. I COULDN'T MOVE THE SHIFT LEVER. I LIFTED MY FOOT UP AND THE CLUTCH WAS STUCK TO THE FLOOR. I PULLED THE CLUTCH PEDAL BACK UP FORCEFULLY BY HAND SEVERAL TIMES WHILE TRYING TO GET THE CLUTCH TO WORK. EACH TIME IT STUCK TO THE FLOOR. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP ON A FLATBED. THEY HAD IT FOR A WEEK AND COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE ISSUE. I SUSPECT IT'S BECAUSE THE WEATHER HAD CON
WAS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC DUE TO AN ACCIDENT FOR 40 MINS. AT ONE POINT MY CLUTCH PEDAL GOT STUCK DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND WOULD NOT COME BACK UP YET THE CLUTCH WAS STILL ENGAGED AND BURNING. THE BURNING SMELL SO SO BAD. I MANAGED TO REACH DOWN AND PULL THE CLUTCH PEDAL UP WITH MY HAND. ONCE I DID THAT I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN FIRST AND DRIVE.
AT 26000 MILES MY HEAD GASKET HAD TO BE REPLACED. STARTED WITH ROUGH MORNING START WHITE SMOKE AND LOSS OF COOLANT. LEAK WAS CONFIRMED IN CYLINDER 3. THE CAR IS STOCK WITH NO MODIFICATIONS.
