2014 Nissan 370Z Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1577613
Internal NHTSA #	11228501

Brand	NISSAN

File date	29/06/19
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Summary: the vehicle concentric slave cylinder (csc), a component of the transmission and clutch, failed abruptly in heavy traffic, leaving the vehicle forced in-gear and unable to shift out of gears or to neutral without damaging the transmission. This is a significant safety risk since it happens abruptly and removes control of the vehicle from the driver; due to the nature of the failure, this can also create a panic-situation similar to brake, steering, or throttle failures since the clutch is an essential part of controlling a manual transmission vehicle in all scenarios. Event: while driving in traffic, shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear (at approximately 30 mph) the clutch pedal would not return once the vehicle was in 3rd gear. I had to stall the vehicle intentionally, thus at high speed (approximately 10+mph) and in traffic, the tires of the vehicle locked-up and the car skidded to a stop. This also imparted drivetrain and engine shock due to the large mechanical forces involved. Concerns: in almost all typical driving scenarios, this failure can be deadly. If this happens on a two-lane highway this can lead to head-on collisions. If it happens on a freeway that sees an abrupt stop, this can lead to a multi-car collision. If this happens on a road with bends or turns this can result in loss of control such that the vehicle may be off-road or over guardrails. Why nhsta involvement is critical: this is a significant safety concern and a common failure mode of cars with this same nissan transmission, and it is caused by negligent design and manufacturing practices by nissan. Failed class-action lawsuits put together by small teams of people have not resulted in removing this safety concern from those who haven't seen the failure yet. My vehicle is a well maintained 2014 nissan 370z with less than 20,000 miles on it, for reference.

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.
