Clutches are considered wear items, so you get a 12/12 warranty on them, unless you bought the Premium Maintenance from Ford.

Go have 'em fix it.

Don't tell them anything except the symptoms. If they push back calling it abuse, remind them of their brake recommendation.

Do you guys see any downsides to taking it to the amarillo dealership and complaining about the advice I got fromt he Dumas dealership? Or should I just take it to the amarillo dealership and explain the symptoms.

Yeah, dont even tell them you went to another dealership, or that you even had a question at any point in your entire life. Just leave it to symptoms

Sure glad I don't have any of those issues. I would be giving the service department a ear full.
