2022 S580 differential leaking

Horrified to learn my 2022 S580 is leaking differential fluid. It is covered by warranty but car only has
32K miles. What the heck??

Can you post the repair ticket? I’m curious what was exactly found (cause) and how they fixed it.

Faulty diff seal maybe?
Interested in finding out what the issue was.

I agree with the others. You really can't expect any complex item to have zero faults. Manufactured products have defects. This is why they make warranties.
What really matters is how well you're taken care of through the repair process.
