Vauxhall Meriva intermittent spongy / floppy clutch,

Car: Vauxhall Meriva
Variant: 1.4
Model Year: 2017
Categories: Gearbox & Clutch
I bought the car 2 months ago, 2 weeks after purchase the clutch went floppy for a few seconds. 2 weeks after that, the clutch did the same thing 4 times in a 15 minute drive. The garage took it fir a test drive, but couldn't find a fault. The garage bled the clutch, but 4 weeks after, the clutch went to the floor with no resistance again, but only for a few seconds. It feels like the bite point is also changing. The problem is very intermittent.
My 3 month warranty runs out in 4 weeks.

If they had to top up and bleed the clutch there must be a hydraulic leak , possibly master cylinder . If the bite point is also changing , may be wear on clutch assembly
