it's not nessasarily true that he will have to pay, the TSB states that premature clutch wear occurs because of fords bad design...... have you ever complained about a problem similar like this to them before? because if you have, they will have it documented. i went into the dealership when i was at approx 10k km's and told them about a clutch rattle, went back two more times complaining about the issue, but i'm at 60k now, but no problems as of yet, i think it's starting to slip, but i've heard of people using clutches to approx 80k+ km's and that is considered to be normal wear, so if my clutch goes in the next few k's then i'm just gonna make them fix it because my issue was documented.
