Yes, it Is a wear item. But what clutch goes out at 3k miles with minimal wheeling. Shitty situation but not much he can do if it's flagged and another dealer won't take a look. Hopefully he can talk more this week

This is correct that it is covered till 12 month/12,000 miles. Also the Jeep it trail rated for a reason and it's up to them to prove this failure was caused from abuse and not a defect. Just because you have a mod on your Jeep does not automatically void your warranty. I would go to another dealer that your familiar with. Having a good relationship with a particular dealer help in these issues.

It is illegal under the Magnusson Warranty Act a manufacturer cannot void your entire warranty just because you added bigger tires. They can void you axles or bearings ect.. but cant void your a/c system. The burden is on them to prove what you did caused the failure.
