clutch won't fully engage/8000 miles small dent
First off my scion has less than 8000 miles manuel transmission. I have babied it for the last year.I recently had a small accident to the rear left bumper. The car was hit in the rear leaving scratches on the rear tail light and the bumper had a 6 inch long crack. (will get pictures)I drove my fr-s home immediately following the small fender bender accident. While pulling in front of my house (about a 8 miles drive from scene of accident) I was then unable to put the car in gear. The car drove home fine but as soon as I parked the clutch pedal would not fully depress. The engine was running with the transmission in neutural. I was unable to put the car in gear after parking.The clutch pedal would not fully engage .I pushed the clutch pedal down but it only went about half way. I then powered off the car. I waited about 2 minutes and Started it back up and it would still not go into gear. The following day the car would not start at all. I am waiting on the tow truck now to take to the dealership for service. I was hoping someone could tell me if they have heard of a similar situation or what may have happened to the clutch and if it has anything to do with rear left damage to bumper. Also why the car will not start.
