Even if it was they would claim owner abuse.

Damn, that sux....im sorry to hear that. Did u do any lauching? My car has about 12,500 miles on it and the clutch still seems strong. Im really worried cause a clutch replacement is a ****load of $$$. Oh well, I've never launched in my car so lets hope my clutch lasts at least another 10K miles or so.

Your clucth IS COVERED. I wish people would read their manual before posting inaccurate info. I believe its page 7 of you warranty manual states that your clutch is covered to 12K miles. Wether or not they actually do because of "abuse" is a whole different story. BUT YES IT IS COVERED

yeah i've never really launched the car, I've taken off fast from a light and stuff but i dont ever rev it up when i'm doin that. I let the clutch all the way out and then go. I understand that if you abuse stuff it will break and I cant afford to be breakin stuff.

^thanks for the info, I was gonna go get that after i got out of the shower I just haven't gotten to it yet.
