Noisy in 4wd and when turning.
Noticed my front diff is leaking for the second time. Not enough to drip to the floor but putting a good coating on skids. Hope it can get done quick. Sometimes the dealer says it will take a week for a tech to even look at it. Causes me to jump around from dealer to dealer.
Did they only swap your seal the first time? Or did they swap your entire front diff?

I’d take it back in and suggest they swap the whole carrier diff — that’s what my dealership will be doing as soon as my 7MT TSB parts come in
Hi there. This leaking concern doesn’t sound like something we want you to experience with your Bronco. Could you please send us a PM with your VIN and the name and location of your Ford dealer? I'd be happy to look into how I can assist you on my end.

Dealership has had mine for over a week now and hasn't been touched to address the seal leak. Unresponsive to email asking for update. Went by because they close at 7 and it was closed at 6.
Here is image of leak in first picture.
Second picture you can see splatter from gear oil hitting cross member.

Add one more to the leaking diff list. Noticed mine was leaking this weekend. 2022 April build with 12,000 miles. Going to take it in this week and fingers crossed it isn’t at the dealer long.

Hi Brandon! I can look into your Bronco's leak concern on my end. To get started, could you please send a private message over with the name/location of your local Ford dealer and your Bronco's VIN?
Fortunately I have a great dealer and they are already on it. Diagnosed as a leaky pinion seal. They are supposed to get the part in Monday for a fix.

I received notice today of my front diff leak during my oil change service at 25k miles. Waiting on part availability from the dealer.
UPDATE:
Had the pinion seal replaced a little less than a month ago and it’s leaking again. The leak is actually more noticeable now than it was before. Dealership confirmed this morning that it is in fact leaking again. Taking it back on Monday when they have a loaner available.

Still no repair from the dealership and they have had parts for a month… annoyed.
