Clutch Warranty

I just got a letter in the mail from Mazda explaining that they are extending the warranty of the clutch pedal to 8 years or 100k miles. Also if you had clutch pedal work in the past, you might get a refund as well. Did anyone else get this letter?

in my letter it says:

On certain 2004-2008 RX-8 vehicles, it is possible that the clutch pedal bracket may have a crack, causing an abnormal noise. If the clutch pedal continues to be operated with this condition, the clutch pedal bracket may break, changing the disengagement point of the clutch and possibly preventing the shifting of gears.

If your RX-8 experiences this symptom, please make an appointment with a Mazda dealer to have the vehicle inspected. If the clutch and/or shifting problem is due to the broken clutch pedal bracket, your dealer will replace the clutch pedal assembly free of charge, during the terms of this warranty extension program.
