Rf axle seal
My wife went for a oil change today, when I got home I looked at the report and it shows: "Note: RF axle seal is leaking. Diff fluid is good." . They did not mention anything to my wife, should I be making another appointment asap?

I would definately make an appointment.Evidently your right front axle seal is leaking,or more so,damp,because your not loosing fluid yet.Make them fix it while it is under warranty.It's funny why they didn't tell your wife,or even tell her the seal would be ordered,and arrange for her to bring it in for repair.

All recalls on the trucks are done. I don't remember having that recall however.
Turns out they did order the part, they just didn't tell us, waiting on it to come in to get it replaced.
