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.....

Hey mine is a 2003 --clutch almost gone at 26000, driven other standards
before with no problem---any one else have problem?
 
mine was a bent throughout bearing.... thats why they had to replace it..
was no wear at all. just bent...

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?

later rebuilt my trans. also underwarranty....

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.
