| Description of the problem | On occasion/randomly the clutch on the 2008 nissan altima coupe will sink to the floor which does not enable the driver to shift the vehicle. The dealer replaced the master cylinder in the past to repair but the same situation has arisen. Not having ability to shift can stall the vehicle and reder it inoperable in the middle of the freeway, on an off-ramp, in an intersection, etc. This is unacceptable. |
