Another Clutch Pressure problem

Hello fellow Fiesta owners,

Just  purchased a 2017 Fiesta (second hand) all seemed fine for a couple of weeks then sudden started to experience a strange clutch issue. After driving about 15-20 minutes the clutch pressure drops to zero the peddle goes to the metal and obviously you can change gear. By Stopping the car, turning off the ignition and putting in to neutral and restarting the pressures back for a while then we restart the cycle. Plenty of fluid in the system no leaks etc.

From the forums I see plenty of similar clutch pressure problems but no really solutions does anyone have any suggestions or had the same experience?

Beginning to think I’ve been sold a pup but the cars otherwise great!
