Out on a trip yesterday. Drove it pretty fast and hard in dusty and sandy conditions. Getting ready to head out again and noticed I'm leaking gear oil from passenger rear axel. Has anyone experienced this? Wondering if the dealer will blame this on 35 inch tires?

I’m having the same issue with my 21 stock Max Tow. In fact, it’s becoming very common. There’s another thread with more info, but the repair seems to be replacement of the axel rather than the seal alone. Waiting to hear from the dealer.

Sucks to waste the hour or so, but they have to see it and get it in the system so they'll get their parts and reimbursement and maybe FCA will finally see there's a problem.
