I'm sorry to post on this forum here but I'm not sure where the best place to turn to is.
So the service department at the dealership is going to charge me $3100 for a new clutch and flywheel on my 2018 Civic Si because they're saying it's driver error. The car has less than 20k miles on it, and I have an extremely hard time believing that's the sole cause. I really, really don't think I drive a manual that badly, I don't ride the clutch and I didn't learn to drive a manual on this car, and no one drives the car other than me. I accelerate faster than most people, probably, but I don't know how much that would affect things. Everything is stock. I had an old manual Civic that I got well above 100k before I had to get the clutch replaced, which is another reason I don't think it's my fault, but, I don't know what to do other than to tell the guy working on the car to document everything and be very open-minded or whatever.
Could I be completely wrong here? I'm trying to be open to that possibility but I just can't believe a car I've owned for less than a year and a half would have this problem.
