I OWN A NISSAN ALTIMA SE-R, I PURCHASED THE CAR PRE-OWNED WITH 42K MILES ON IT. AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR JUST A MONTH THE CLUTCH WILL SINK TO THE FLOOR AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO ANY GEARS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON GOING PROBLEM SINCE I'VE OWNED THE CAR AND ITS GOING TO BE 2 YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR THIS SUMMER. MANY OF THE TIMES THE CLUTCH HAS LOST PRESSURE GOING OVER BRIDGES AND STOPPING TO PAY TOLLS AND DURING TRAFFIC. HOW CAN I OPERATE MY VEHICLE CORRECTLY IF THE CLUTCH KEEPS LOOSING PRESSURE BECAUSE THE MASTER AND SLAVE CYLINDER LOOSES PRESSURE. HOW SAFE IS THAT FOR NOT ONLY MYSELF BUT OTHER MOTOR VEHICLE OPERATORS ON THE ROAD. *TR
