Default Clutch goes, embarrassing and painful..

Driving my 2013 370z with 10k miles and in heavy city traffic, all of a sudden, the clutch pedal does not come back up and I could not shift, stuck in Neutral. It started a couple of minutes earlier and shifting became difficult as I tried to pull back the clutch and push hard and could do it a couple of times and then, on a crowded street, waiting fot the light to change, I could not shift. Had to wave at angry folks behind me to go around me.

A jogger and I pushed the car to the curb. I called triple A and after an hours wait, a tow truck picked my car and me, drove 115 miles back and we dropped the car outside a closed Nissan dealership near my home.

Tomorrow morning I will go to the service department and have them check it out. Hope it is in warranty or the costs are reasonable.

Comments, suggestions on what could have gone wrong. I bought the car with 8.6 k miles with clear car fax, it's a sports package and had been running beautifully till this. How could the clutch go so fast?
