Arrow okay so i kinda pissed and sad right now

so i bought my car like a month and a half ago and it has 26k on it , its a 06 now it has 29k on it and my clutch is slipping like really bad it sucks i mean i kinda knew my clutch was going to go out cause i learned to drive a 5 speed on it , but i didn't know it would go this fast . im really not sure it if it is going to be covered under warranty i hoping so but i doubt it u know cause it is a wear and tear item . if anybody has any input on this subject it would really really be appreciated !
thanks

Hope the warranty will cover it but odds are you're coming out of pocket on this.

Well if you bought the car a month ago, take it back to the dealer you bought it from.

I agree with Ben...

Do NOT tell them that you just learned how to drive a stick. If you need to buy a used yet functional clutch let me know. I have a couple in the garage that I can sell probably. =)

good luck, there is no warranty on clutches. the only way its going to be covered is if the dealer where you bought it from feels like being nice. even then they may only do a 50/50.

Yeah, it's all on the dealer. Go in with a nice attitude and bring a box of doughnuts for the guys. It goes a long ways normally. In chicago the dealer turned my rotors and replaced pads under "warranty" lol

In charlotte they barely changed my oil.

heh yeah, good luck getting it under warrenty, the odds of them covering it is slim to none due to it being a ware and tear. but like photo said dont tell em u just leant stick on it, and youmight have a shot at getting a deal. if not, get it replaced by someone that isnt a stealership. and if you plan on modding in the future you may aswell upgrade.
