Leaking axle seal?

[cb4017]

Damn! I started this tread about 4 years ago and just came back after a 2 year hiatus. Hard to believe they haven't got it figured out yet.

A little concerning since I'll probably be picking up a new Mojave in the next week or so.

The right rear axle seal on my 2005 WJ leaked, had to replace it. I guess that this has been going on for 20 years, and still no fix.

Parts ordered expect them to be shipped sometime after the next 15 days
…and the waiting begins

I have a 22 Overland with 43K miles, in the past 6 months I have dealt with a front passenger axle leaking 3 times, the dealer repairs it and 2 months later it starts leaking again! I am ready to give the it back to the dealer! Its going in tomorrow for the 4th time, same issue!

I would think this point, unless they can say you bent the housing.....They should just order you a new complete front axle assy.

I dropped it off today and told to replace the whole assembly. We will see!

Ugh! I hear you. I had a Willy's 2021 and every time I rotated tires after 15k, I noticed a massive amount of grease on the rotor, caliper and axel shaft. This went on until July 24 when they were repairing (since it was documented under warranty), I got a call from the dealer "wanting to buy" my jeep. I ended up trading in for a 2025 Mojave. I could not be happier and fingers crossed after 4k no issues! Best of luck here.

I cannot say enough how much I appreciate Jeep Cares in assisting me with this problem. (Shout out to Bree!) After changing to another Jeep dealership I finally seem to have everything working!!!

Having a great service department is key. Someone you can depend on and trust.

I had an '01 that did the same thing on the same side. Dana 44 rear (for those wondering why this is relevant). Pulled a right rear axle assembly off a junkyard WJ, popped it in, no leaks for another 10k miles when I sold it

I have a 2021 JT S Max tow purchased in 12-21 with about 35000 miles and just had my right rear axle seal repaired under warrantee without issue. I would think that you shouldn't have any problems

Look in door frame. There is a sticker that shows MDH(month/day/hour) of production. What is yours?
