Hello everyone. Posting about my rear axle that was leaking and is now fixed under warranty.
Reason for posting is I had found other people's posts helpful when I had a dead keypad, kept me from exploding at the dealer since I had prior knowledge of a known issue by reading the forums.
Long story short, I noticed seepage at the seal for the wheel bearing and axle shaft.
Master tech (I told them I was going on vacation so they put their best guy on it and management was involved) said it had a "new" flange type on it that was loose. So they re-torqued it and cleaned it all up and I was on my way.
Will update if it returns. I think I may be the only one who had this issue at the moment
In the picture it is visible at the bottom of the caliper carrier and where it dripped inside the wheel
