There is no TSB or recall on this issue. Any suggestions on a dealership/SA who has dealt with this that I may be able to call. Thanks.

the clutch pedal gets so tough to press that driving the car is near impossible.

Default For me it was different
Sometimes it would be very stiff like you said and sometimes it was like there was no resistance and it went right to the floor.

Default anyone know if they designed a production fix early on?
or was it ignored and an issue that still needs to be addressed for every car?
