If i was club owner i would be very carefull about letting low time pilots "write up" snags in the tech log without supervision after all its not uncommon to get some one write "radio U/S" and the aircraft is grouded untill a radio engineer is found to clear the open entry in the tech log only to find that the problem is the pilots headset !
The margins are thin in GA and this sort of thing can wipe out a whole weekend of flying for an aircraft which is probably 75% of a weeks revinue for it ,having said that if you feel that the aircraft is unfit for flight and you are sure of your facts then for safeys sake write up the snag.
