Went to back out of my driveway and couldn't get OUT of reverse. Seems like some sort of pressure loss in the pedal. The power steering whined noticeably when I turned right, also.
I had the clutch replaced 1 year ago, maybe 20,000 miles on it. The car had been sitting for 2.5 months until 2 days ago, if that helps.
Any help appreciated!

Try this for a short term fix: with your hand push the clutch pedal to the floor then pull it all the way up.Repeat about 50 times or until you get a full pedal again. It's kind of like bleeding brakes.
