Sensitive Clutch

For the first time I bought a brand new car through an incentive scheme at work. After just 14 000 km it burned the clutch and I was told that it is my fault and apparently the clutch for the new gen ford cars are "sensitive". I regret buying this car after a stop and go driving through traffic the clutch is smelling and I wonder if it will need replacement soon since "it is sensetive ". Funny how I had bought a second hand Nissan Tida and driven it for years but never had a problem, had driven an old Isuzu Single cab bakkie for years without a problem and have driven an old second hand etios that never had a problem. I still have three more years to drive this car and I am hating every moment.
