Holden Colorado 2010: Clutch problem

When I booked my 2010 Holden Colorado in for a 60,000 km service I asked the dealer to check the clutch, as I believed it had a slight slip. They pulled the gearbox out and told me the clutch is worn out and not covered under warranty. It has never towed anything and has mostly been driven on the highway as I live in the country. Is there a problem with the clutches and can you suggest a course of action?

It appears that most, if not all, one-tonne utes are affected by the same clutch problem. It's the same story on pretty much every ute, no mater the brand, and the common complaint is premature wear and/or slipping and shuddering. I agree with you that 60,000 km is too low for a clutch to be worn out, but you'll find your warranty clearly states that the clutch is not covered. You could argue your case for Holden to cover the cost of the replacement, or you could have a better aftermarket clutch fitted.
