2010 SS Clutch Slipping?

To those who have the 6 speed manual transmission; are any of you having problems with the clutch slipping? Mine seems to have some issues when its cold, meaniing when I first start it up and drive it for the first 5 miles or so...

I'm sorry to hear about the issues your having with your clutch oltimes. Have you ever spoken with your dealership or with our Customer Assistance team in regards to this issue? Thank you for your time. I hope it's nothing serious.

15K no issues. Bring it to the dealer, your clutch could be cooked.

10K here, no problems. Clutch engagement is about halfway from the floor on mine as well, just before the weird "break." If anything, it's very consistent.

Mine is the exact the same as brianko said. I'm at the same mileage, too.

My friends dad was looking at a used 2010. When he test drove it he brought it to our house an me and my dad both drove it. The clutch felt really spongy and was slipping pretty bad. It was a SS with maybe 3000 miles on it.

I had problems with my clutch slipping. I brought it to the dealership twice before they would do any thing. When They finally opened it up to replace the bolts on the fly wheel the clutch fell apart and was replaced. I had about 1575 miles on it. The new clutch feels better. It is not spongy and soft like before. It catches much lower too the old one was catching at the very top of the spectrum.
