Are there any Right Hand Drive Owners ( Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, UK, Japan, Asia) experienced this Clutch Pedal Failure as I have emailed Mazda Australia about the US NHTSA Investigation.

Hey nycgps, see if a mod or admin will put a warning up somewhere when you first open the 8 site, or have them send out a mass pm, never hurts to try.
. It's good though to actually be able to read about it being investigated now.

I know what ur saying but cant really agree with that seeing as they could have taken a vw beetles amount of weight just outta the exhaust alone w/o comprimising any safety or emissions, thats like sayin u want liposuction to loose a few pounds so also shave off a pound of muscle from ur heart, well anyways hopefully enuf ppl complain and they do a recall

Hey guys i met with a manager from Maple shade Mazda and they took pics of the pedal, parts, my car etc and its gonna be forward to mazda headquarters, so hopefully this will go somewhere, my pedal broke twice within a year 
...by the way the dealer offer to fix it on more time again and i said "no thank you your pedal sux"

.
This thread is about the pedal failures, not about the investigation. The title of this thread wouldn't help people find anything about the investigation if they were looking for it. If a thread would be stickied, it would be one of those and then someone could reference this thread about how they broke.
