Very interesting stuff here.
Very interesting stuff here.
Yes I will.
Total miles driven like that are 350.
I never noticed anything wrong with brakes but fluid was dripping the entire wheel was black.
I am going there next week to get all the info before they work on it.

Good deal!
Just to be clear, that was either brake fluid or differential fluid. Giving them the benefit of the doubt and its dif fluid that was leaking, you are looking at replacing the ring and pinion, possibly the carrier (loaded) and of course the axle seals, pinion seals and bearings.
Im sure your in good hands considering it's under warranty. It would just be nice to know exactly what they are replacing. Generalizations like "the entire unit" wouldn't cut it for me.
On a side note, gear oil (dif fluid) has a VERY distinct smell. It will be completely obvious what fluid it is. Once you get a wif of that stuff you never forget the smell.

I'm not surprised.
Our 2018 lost the clutch hydraulics at 5000 miles, and they replaced EVERYTHING.
Flywheel, clutch, throw-out, fork, hydraulics.
They never where able to explain to me how the slave cyl failing would take out the entire clutch system.
Also was never able to see the failed parts.
Just hit 10K miles, probably due for another clutch!

I have to agree. The only reason I can see for the housing to be replaced is if the hub spun a wheel bearing. Actually, if it got as hot as being described, it would have caught fire. Once the oil gets going it can get sticky. That sucker would have been glowing, burning rims and maybe tires. He would have smelled it.
Not sure what state you're in, but here in sunny New Jorsey, it has to go to the dealer 3 times for the same issue before you can execute the lemon law

Lemon laws vary by state so it depends where you are.
I would look up your states laws and see if you qualify.
