There is a spring to push back the M/C piston shaft and therefore cause the pedal to return. It is in the M/C in front of the seal but it is unusual that it would be broken or sacked in such a new bike. I'd look for binding of the brake pedal, perhaps the bushing was not driven into the pedal frame far enough and the end of it is scraping against the shaft collar or frame. A little time with a file would cure the problem if that's what it is.
