a leaky driveshaft seal !
 
There seem to be a minor oil leak around my drive shaft seal in my rear axel diferential. my truck is a 2004 and as 61000 km. I am under the 7 years/ 70000 powertrain warranty, So is the dealer is going to fix it under warranty or this isn't a warranty issue you think ?
thx for your feedbacks.

When you call them, refer to it as a"Pinion seal". Drive shafts have no seals....:D

Depending on your exact coverage type, it looks like it's covered.

Yes thats definately a warranty issue. Actually a pretty common one too.

Definately a warrenty issue, But if you're a handy man ask yourself if it's worth the drive to the dealer to replace a $5 seal. My dealer isa little overan hour away so I just did mine myself. Just don't tell them you did it b/c if for some reason you happen to experiance rear-end problems in the future, they will probably try to blame it on improper seal instillation. As if that were even possible.

Yes definitely a warranty issue. I had the front pinion seal and the right rear axle seal replaced on mine under warranty

Obviously all, or at least truck/SUV Chryslers have this issue. Mine went bad on the Jeep GC. I did notice my rear differential wet on my Hemi the other day, have to get under and take a look.
