Maybe I should take it to the dealership just to see if it is something that is covered under the power train warranty???

I'm really new at this sort of thing. I'm more of a suspension component guy myself.
Well, now, @Brndn704, whatever is making that noise will most likely not fix itself and just get worse.

Whether it's a bad release bearing (TOB), a broken or loose clutch spring, a bad front bearing, a warn or dry clutch fork, a separated clutch disk or a warped pressure plate ...... it should be fixed.

So, like said up above, the time (labor) is the expensive part. While they have it opened up, they might as well replace the clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing and clutch fork.

Sorry about that .......
