Most people are getting plenty life out of their clutches - myself included. I do admit that it catches differently than any clutch - including Jeep -clutch I've driven but it works fine. If you've replaced two in 7,000 miles there is an issue and it's not the clutch plates or everyone would have a similar problem.

If it was my Jeep I would figure out the problem - which is minimal since they're replacing it under warranty. Something must be installed improperly. Either way, if it's a mechanical issue with your clutch (because it's not the plates) then you'll likely wear through another assembly unless you get the underlying issue resolved.

Get your clutch fixed yet? What did they find wrong?
