Damn, sorry to hear that. Any other dealers in your area perhaps?

If you end up having to get it done yourself, might want to look into an upgraded clutch fork.

Well, that's too bad.

Was there any other reason the dealership refused to do warranty work on the clutch ..... ??

I just have a feeling there is a "the rest of the story" ......

Obviously not all stock, if the line isn't... why was that replaced?

They are obligated by law to fix your car. Modifications DO NOT void a warranty. They need to prove, through legal arbitration, that the clutch line caused the fork to bend the shitty clutch fork, and bending clutch forks is a common problem on this platform. You are protected by the Magnuson Moss Act. Do NOT take no for an answer.

If the car has an aftermarket clutch pressure plate, you're screwed. It's likely the cause for the failure.
