I had my vehicle serviced for my 30k miles this past weekend. The servicing dealership noticed my rear axle was leaking again (this will be the 3rd time in under 6 months this problem has occurred).
The dealership I took it to on the weekend did not have any replacement seals, and said there was still plenty of grease in there, but the leak was present. So I am taking it to my local dealership in the morning.
I remember Jim W. commenting before (about the 2nd leak) that the dealership should have performed a better job at fixing those seals the 1st time around so I wouldn't have to go back a second time......... But now, we're at the 3rd time. SURELY there is something they are missing...... or should they actually be looking into replacing something a bit bigger rather than just the seal? All I know (which is limited when it comes to vehicles) is that this will be the 3rd repair in under 6 months.... it's starting to make me worry about it because I'm getting so close to the end of my warranty. (I expect my 36,000 mile mark will be hit by January or February of next year.... it turns 2 years old in 9 days.... lol) I don't want to be stuck with having this repaired at 36,001 miles and have to pay a huge bill, when they apparently haven't ever fixed it right to begin with.... :-/
