I'm still OEM clutch but i got the rjm pedal because of how awful the OEM pedal is. 1000% improvement! You'll be able to adjust your engagement hight and have better modulation

Put a complaint (link located on the first post of this thread)

Put a complaint with Nissan in their Facebook page.

Has anyone received an email from nhtsa following up on your complaint filed on their web site? I happened to find this in my junk box today.

They're looking for additional documentation to add to the claim but I don't have any to submit. I didn't take the car to the dealer and just refilled the flush in my driveway. How should I respond guys? I already provided the details in the claim, not sure if there's anything I can add to it.

I haven't seen anything

The on-line site is down right now. I'm having to do it via phone....

SerialCoderer · 08-19-2015, 10:48 AM

I got rid of my Z after this issue. That was the last straw pulled. Too many major issues at such low miles. I am disappointed with the 370z and I love the Z. I had owned the 350z and I loved that car so much it made me purchase the 370z (with 7k miles) and it some major issues which scares me now that the factory warranty is up.

I was told I needed an engine and had Nissan rebuild it (under warranty) then that failed (shot a rod...hole in my engine). they replaced it with a new engine. Then this clutch failing issue aside from minor little things was to much to bear with 42k miles.

I did, I answered the little form provided... Explained everything I did including having Nissan look at it and scanned over the work orders from my independent shop and dealership.

MagmaRed370z · 08-20-2015, 07:48 PM

They really need to recall this issue. (I think I have said/post that at least 7 times now).

Lex · 08-25-2015, 03:38 PM

I haven't had a problem yet (knock on wood) but this scares the sh!# out of me. An aluminum SCS needs to be made and Nissan should recall and install them all.
