Rear Differential Leak ?

hi

is this normal ? went if for a service A at the dealer told me i have a Rear Differential Leak 33,000 miles they will fix it under warranty but my question is this normal for a new car?

also what i notice 3 services for $999 i going to sign up for 40K - 50K 60K

cause these are major service and cost is over $3000 that what he said for $999 upfornt payment i think it is very good.


Let me know anyone had issue with Rear Differential Leak E350 4matic sedan 2012

Normal - no. But not abnormal either. Gaskets should last longer, but.... it happens. Could have been a mfg. defect, or improperly torqued bolt.

I've had a front wheel bearing fail at 15k. With a mechanical part like a wheel bearing - could last 500 miles or 200k miles.

Sometimes its just the luck of the draw.
