You might have awkwardly experienced the common failure of the clutch master cylinder. There is a limited recall for this common problem, 10 years from date in service or 120,000 miles, whichever comes first. So your '08 is on the thin line, maybe. Suggest you check with your favorite dealer service and ask, if your car is anywhere close to being out of this special coverage period. Even if out by a little bit, they might be able to "good will" the repair for you.
Here's just one of many discussions you can look at:
