I was driving down the road and came up to a light. When the light turned green I tried to put the truck into gear but was unable to do so. I had the car brought to a mechanic and was told that the clutch, slave cylinder, and fly wheel needed to be replaced because a pump had failed and allowed fluid to penetrate all three. The truck only has 48,000 miles on it. I never in my life had to replace a clutch with only 48000 miles.
