AFTER SOME NORMAL WEAR WITH BRACKETING FOR CLUTCH PEDAL SUPPORT THE PLASTIC SELF ADJUSTING MECHANISM DOES NOT ENGAGE CORRECTLY AND THE CLUTCH MAY SPONTANEOUSLY ENGAGE AND PROPEL VEHICLE FORWARD OR BACK WHEN STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC SIGNAL ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS MY VEHICLE WAS INADVERTANTLY PROPELED INTO INTERSECTIONS AGAINST THE SIGNALS. I REALIZE THIS IS AN OLD VEHICLE BUT I SUSPECT THAT GENERAL MOTORS KNEW OF THE HAZARDS INHERANT IN THIS SYSTEM AS IT WAS ONLY USED FOR ONE OR TWO YEARS AND THEN REPLACED WITH A HYDRAULIC SYSTEM.
