CLUTCH GOES STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR AND DOES NOT COME BACK UP. CAN NOT SHIFT AND/OR ACCELERATE MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE THE CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE. BEEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY - TRAFFIC STARTS TO SLOW DOWN, I GO TO SHIFT DOWN AND CLUTCH GOES OUT AND DOESN'T COME BACK UP. VERY SCARY WHEN YOU ARE IN THE FAST LANE GOING 65 MILES AND YOUR CLUTCH DOESN'T WORK. BOTH TIMES THE SLAVE CYLINDER HAD TO BE REPLACED.
