 Description of the problemThe clutch pedal of my mustang failed at just over 90,000 miles. I was driving in my neighborhood when the pedal was no longer able to be operated safely and required twisting my leg in order to push the pedal down. After limping the vehicle home, i inspected the pedal and found that weld that joined one side of the pedal arm to the pivot bar had broken off completely, and the other side had cracked. This allowed significant lateral movement of the pedal, which caused it to hang up in the assembly when pushing it in. There was no abuse loading of the pedal through the life of the car. As a mechanical engineer, i can say with confidence that the weld that broke off was bad/cold, and that once it broke, shifted all the pedal loads to the other side, resulting in its failure. This design is not robust to typical manufacturing quality variations due to the welds being only 90 deg around the circumference. My failure is only one of dozens that have been reported in model specific forums and on social media. I have encouraged others with this issue to report theirs.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
  • What is Defect?

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
