Default 2018 WRX Throw Out Bearing Issues.

A little over a month ago I had my throw out bearing replaced at 36000 miles under warranty because it was rattling when the clutch was engaged. Now 1200 miles later the bearing is rattling again. I have already spoken with the dealership and obviously they will replace the bearing again if it has gone bad. My question is, is this just going to be a continuous cycle where this noise just comes back every few thousand miles or so? If this is the case is it even worth having the bearing replaced again or should I just wait until I get a new clutch whenever that is necessary?

There was a recent thread on rattling throw-out bearings describing your same issue.

All had to due to a poorly designed throw-out bearing.
Subaru did an upgrade.
When the correct upgraded throw-out bearing was installed, the issue went away.

Search for that thread to follow what went on.

That's what the other guy said too.
Took some finagling but he got his Dealer to do it all over again.

I got mine replaced a year ago and haven't had any noises out of it since then (knock on wood). So I would expect a properly installed fix to solve the issue.
