If it is your clutch I highly doubt a dealer would cover it...if they do then it is a dealer that everyone should go to. Clutches are considered "wear and tear" and are never covered. IF it turns out that it is your clutch then you might want to think about upgrading to a better clutch (instead of stock replacement) if you car is modified, or (not to offend) learn how to shift better. After only 16k a clutch should not wear out. If it ONLY happens when being thrown into 2nd....might be several other problems including the gear itself being worn.
