Get thee to thy dealer! This a known issue. Trek has been trying to make the frames accept a larger tire, should the customer desire, but they occasionally missed on certain frame sizes. Trek will send your dealer a long reach version of the same brake you have.
I totally agree that the bike builder should have caught it. They owe you a tire and tube. But only one. It's not their fault you didn't seek a remedy from them the first time you noticed it.
This is what warranties are for.
When you notice a problem on a new bike
take it back or at least call and let them know!
