Description of the problem	Aug 7th, 2006 at 15,033 miles i originally reported clutch problem aug 21st, 2006 at 15,621 miles nissan in quincy repaired the clutch pressure plate and throw out bearing. This was covered under warranty at the time and the parts were replaced as a result of my visit on august 7th. After the clutch pressure plate and throw out bearing was replaced, i returned to nissan claiming the clutch ? Was not right?. At that time they told me that since i just had parts replaced it may take a while for them to ? Wear in?. ? October 11, 2006 at 18,114 miles they replaced my clutch master and slave cylinder because i was driving to work on the highway (going about 50). I went to shift and my clutch stuck to the ground and would not come back up. I was not able to shift and was basically driving in neutral on the highway. This was extremely scary and i was very lucky that i did not get into an serious accident that day! I slowly got off the next exit (actually rolled off). I tried to pump the clutch and force it into gear. It eventually popped back up and i was able to get it into gear. I drove it straight to nissan (in the right lane with my hazard lights on). I explained to quirk nissan what had just happened on the highway. I was very upset ? And that? S when they replaced the clutch master and slave cylinder. At 41,000 miles i had to have my clutch and flywheel replaced. I have talked to a few mechanics and they feel something is not right and that nissan should be held responsible. I wrote a letter to corporate nissan and they are denying that there is any liability on their part and i had to pay almost $2000 out of pocket for a clutch and flywheel (not covered under warranty).
