Do you abuse your clutch or something? This isn't a common problem.

Nope.. they said the throughout bearing was bent.. so they are replacing the
whole thing.....

My Elantra GT has 26,000 miles and the clutch just broke too. The
dealer won't cover it and I'm going crazy trying to make them. My
story sounds exactly like yours. Any luck with yours?

What does "broke" mean? Is it worn out? Did the hydraulic actuation
system fail? Did the pedal snap off? "Broke" is essentially meaningless
when you're trying to determine the cause/source of a problem and
particularly when you're trying to determine whether it should be
covered under warranty.

Do you slip the clutch when waiting at stoplights on an incline? If so,
that's definitely abuse and it shouldn't be covered.
