Good news!
I got a confirmation email from Pentax. The lens will be fixed under
warranty as I expected. It seems there was a defect on it. I will
update when I receive it with information on what was the real problem.

was planning to use it there. -Angel

Well mine has bite the dust, at least while its been fixed by
Pentax It
does not go below 20mm focal length. I noticed it after using it
at an
outdoor photo shoot. I was going to use the lens in the studio when I
found the problem. I could hear a rattle inside like coming from a
bearing, a crew or a nut, and whatever it is it can not be seen. I
did
not try to force to go to 16mm. The lens is off warranty but I hope
they found the problem is related to a factory defect and fix it. I
have not dropped it or banged it, just normal perfect use. I hope is
only that part loose around and that there is no additional damage.
The lens focuses and works ok except for the problem described. I
will update when I get it back.
