The clutch and fly wheel wore out on the car at 22k miles. this is extremely early for a clutch to fail. the clutch failed on a busy highway (i-81) and i was forced to pull over in an unsafe location. i have driven manual transmissions for many years and have never had a clutch fail at such a low mileage. *tr
