Rear Differential Failure

[Judyrn4842]

My 22 Wildtrak lost the rear end at 22K miles. It has been in the shop for 3 weeks waiting on a new rear end/axle. Has anyone had this repair and how long did you have to wait for the parts?

Ouch, sorry to hear it.

There some takeoff rear ends that I see from time to time. But that wouldn't be warranty service.

I'm not certain if this is the exact one you have, but FP is showing in stock 1-7 day delivery:

Curious, How long did it take to get this fixed? Taking mine in Monday, rear diff is HOWLING,

Dropping off to the dealership now, will update this thread (there aren't many other threads I could find concerning rear diff failures). Should be covered under warranty, my main concern is the parts backorder issue others ran into with rear end parts. Fingers crossed

damn. I'm going to have to quit going through these forum pages!! LOL I was looking at ordering both front and rear axles since its almost as cost effective and easier to just bolt in a whole new axle then to buy the locking diff and regear for bigger tires. Now I have seen people having issues with both the front and rear diffs. Damn!!

If it’s any consolation I’ve had no issues with the UD44 pinion seal leaking

If all you do is read about problems on here it's inevitably gonna have you thinking that your turbos about to dissolve, cam phasers are close to taking a shit, trans is gonna need all its synchros replaced, your valve seats are gonna fall right out, hard top is gonna delaminate itself, soft top is gonna let an entire blizzard fill your front seats, your fuel pump is gonna die in the middle of rush hour traffic, your brake boosters gonna fail on your way down a steep mountain pass..


Fuckin things are death traps really.

Hahaha. Yeah you have a point. There's thousands of them and then there's the numbers posting here.
I'm really just going to drive it until something happens and then deal with it.
