I bought a '88.5 Escort GT that needed a clutch kit and half the transaxle housing because the driver was going down hills with the clutch pedal actuated.
The throwout bearing exploded, the clutch disk overheated, exploding, and shrapnel damaged the flywheel, pressure plate, and clutch housing bad enough that I didn't want to reuse them.
Some people have had issues with it, but it's more of an issue of you can't re-grease your throwout bearing, as with many sealed units.
