+1, Same here.

If your concerned, try this...

With the car on level ground, push the clutch in and put the car in first gear.....take your other foot off the brake. Don't let the clutch out and don't take it out of first gear....just sit there. Being level ground the car should not move forward or backward. If you feel the car inching forward, you have a symptom and should go talk to your Ford dealer and let them know that....or just go have an aftermarket clutch thrown in the car, and never ever worry about this happening again.
