Interesting that I am reading this. Yesterday, I had the exact same issue identified on a brand new 2014 Track. Clutch all the way to the floor with no pressure. Finally came back but the 1-2 upshift seems way off now and the clutch has significantly more play in it. Had it for one month and no clutch drops, etc. Just some "spirited" driving. Going to contact my dealer about the bulletin. Great thread forum!

Dude I had 1,200 miles on mine when it went out. I highly recommend bringing them a high quality synthetic fluid to replace the crap that came in your car. It's not a fix but it'll definitely perform better. I'm at 43.5k now on the replacement CSC with no issues.

It amazes me that a "known" issue over the entire run of a car hasn't been addressed by the manufacturer. Definitely going to take synthetic with me to the dealer. I know they can do better than this!

Mine only got really light.. never got stucked to the floor. Checked the clutch fluid and it was really dark. Replaced it and haven't had issues for the moment. Order a braided steel line and RBF600 brake fluid just to be careful...
