Clutch beginning to slip

My car is eight months old, has 20k miles on it and the clutch is beginning to slip. The car is a daily commuter that never has been to the track, nor do I race on the street. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? Has Mitsu honored the warranty?

I am taking it to the dealer this week, to see what they say about it. If they don't honor the warranty, does anyone have suggestions for a new clutch, and a shop in the DFW area? Any feedback would be appreciated.

Lots and lots of stuff here if you search for it... least expensive of the clutches I'd put on my car would probably be the ACT with street (read OE) disc. However, the RRE X-clutch (with Exedy 6 rivet disc [read better disc]) will be just a little more expensive and appear stock.

PS They will most likely deny your warranty based on mileage alone.
