My car broke down last night...
#1
I was on my way home from band practice in Versailles and I kept getting bright-lighted by a car on KY-1980. I checked all of my lights and they were working so I don't know what he was bright-lighting me about.

I get to the intersection of KY-1980 and Tates Creek Rd. and push down the clutch and put the car in neutral. The clutch doesn't come back up or disengage. I try shifting into first but it doesn't work.

So I put on the emergency blinkers and get to the side of the road. I turned off the car and it shifted into first, but the clutch was still stuck down and would not return to it's normal position. But when I turned the car off, it let me switch gears, put it in nuetral, etc. :confused:

I knew there was a gas station about a mile away so I drove it in first to the nearest gas station, but it was closed. At this point I got out and checked all my fluids and everything was okay. I checked to see if something was jamming the clutch, but couldn't see any problems. I was on back roads the whole time, so I attempted to drive my car closer to Richmond in 2nd gear. So I put the car in neutral, start the engine and back up. When I turned the car off and tried to put it in 1st, it wouldn't go. Now, I can't get the thing to shift into any gear and it's stuck in reverse. So I turn the car off and leave it parked. Got a ride back to Richmond and I'm stuck having to tow it first thing in the morning and get it serviced.

Still don't know what's wrong with it.
