So add another one to the list...
2011 Nismo

I just encountered this issue yesterday. Clutch traveled halfway before engaging. Later on the highway, the problem got worse and the clutch had to be pressed to the floor to change gears. Occasionally, it would also get stuck and I had to pry it back with my foot. The problem seems to be intermittent for now but I took it straight to the dealer. They drove it and said they couldn't find anything wrong. They kept the car for a day and gave me a Versa for a loaner (ugh).
Dealer called today and mentioned that the car is fine and that it is most likely a heat soak issue. Thanks for the posts and comments in this thread cause I'm headed there tomorrow with proof in hand and a demand to inspect the car more thoroughly.

Mine is in the shop ATM still being inspected. I have 123 miles left on my warranty and awaiting if everything is gonna get covered. This happened while I was going to canibeatxhellaflush this weekend and couldnt show. PITA as its my only car. If I went to the show I wouldve been real close to being over the 36000mi warranty. Was at the toll road and forgot i was in gear and let go of the clutch. Gave it gas to save it from stalling and was able to keep going but noticed a squishy pedal and eventually the next morning could not put it in gear. Well see what they say. No fluid in the res.
