Description of the problem | 2004 mazda rx-8 clutch bracket snapped off while driving on 3rd gear not letting me to change gears at all. Car was unable to operate. Thank god i was in a residential area because if i was on a freeway, that would have been a lot more dangerous. A clutch pedal should not break under any circumstance and it clearly shows a defect on the manufacturer of the certain parts. |
