Faulty clutch plate - worn out after 19000 Kms

for VX i-DTEC

I bought Honda amaze diesel top end model in December 2013 and have been maintaining as per the service book. So far, it ran about 19,000 Kms, and I noticed loss of power at lower gears, also developed a rattle sound in first gear. Yesterday, I took it to the dealer and was very disappointed to know that the clutch plate is worn out and needs to be replaced. Apparently, the warranty does not cover the clutch plate. I bought this vehicle for its mileage of 25 kmpl on the highway which is true. I even compromised on engine noise in the cabin. But spending over Rs. 12,000 for the clutch for just 19,000 Kms is really frustrating and beats the purpose of good mileage. I still don't know how much I have to pay exactly and waiting for the replacement. I expected Honda brand to have better quality parts. I drove 90,000 Kms on my WagonR without any problems. I wish I had read other reviews before buying this car. Today, I see many people reporting the same issue. I wish I had known this before buying.
