Clutch is stiff.
When I bought my car I noticed the clutch very light. Now it's become a lot stiffer what's the problem is there a problem?

That seems really odd, does everything seem to be working ok with it besides the feel?

Hmmmmmm, I'd check the clutch cable. Well, I wouldn't as its new. I'd have the dealer check it next oil change.

Yeah clutch cables went away in 2004. I never really saw an issue with them, simple and it works.

If it's a new one, 2018, there is a TSB for the clutch bolts loosening. Take it to the dealer, get it checked out. Good luck.
