Sticky: (Official) 370Z Clutch Pressure (CSC) Failures

Rnchdude · 04-07-2016, 04:08 PM

So many of us have had this issue, for so many years now. Under warranty or not, it's a potential safety issue and I encourage everyone with a failed CSC to file a complaint at the NHTSA site, and use keywords like "Loss of control" "potential for injury / harm / death" "negligence" as I did. It takes 10 minutes. Leave the anger of the bad dealership experience out of the report and focus on the keywords. Nissan has been deliberately non-responsive to improve the part because it is SO expensive to pay the dealership to drop the transmission and replace this stupid plastic POS. And just because it's not a Taketa airbag exploding and causing harm doesn't mean that one of us Z-lovers out there won't hurt ourselves or a loved one when this Fu*&ing part fails at highway speed during an emergency maneuver. Love my car, but doubt I'll ever spend this kind of $ on a Nissan again.
