Transmission Gear Slipping problems of the 2002 Volkswagen GTI

I have a 2002 Volkswagen Gti with approximately 42000 and discovered my manual transmission was slipping in every gear. After bringing my car to lindsay Volkswagen in sterling, va, I was informed that the problem was bad clutch and that the repair would not be covered under my warranty. After some research online, I have discovered several identical situations of other owners of 2002 volks Gti 1. 8t manual and the company's refusal to cover it under warranty or investigate why a clutch needs to be replaced at under 45,000 miles. Accordingly, I can attest that I operate my vehicle in a safe and legal manner and in accordance with what a reasonable person would consider competence and care.
