I purchased my Elantra GT 6/2014 and it currently is sitting at just under 10k miles. Since the beginning I have had issues with the clutch and it seems to only be getting worse. The clutch engagement is very inconsistent and it can be very difficult to get it to go into gear, mainly reverse. My upper gears (4th,
5th and 6th) seem to be fine, it is only R, 1st, 2nd and 3rd that are giving me issues. My main concern is the fact that I am either riding my clutch or practically stalling it because the engagement is so inconsistent. Sometimes it is very smooth and shifts perfectly as it should but this is only about 50% of the time. I have heard all the Tiburon horror stories and have read up on the many lawsuits and am hoping that this isn't related to that issue. Has anyone else heard of similar issues on a vehicle that is newer with relatively few miles? Also, this is not my first manual car. I have owned a few and driven many and have never experienced something like this.- posted
