Hey Guys,
My beloved Bronco @4,600 miles is giving me some issues...
After a carwash today ive notice some grease underside decided to look in and noticed blown CV seal, but also weeks before noticed my alignment is off.
Ive never off roaded the car, never even turned on 4x4... ughh gotta love this high quality product.
So the question is will the dealer cover this under manufacturer warranty or what are my next steps? (did not buy any warranty with it)

The axle boot should but I don't think the alignment would be. They will say that the alignment could get knocked out by hitting a curb or something.

Do you have an aftermarket lift on it changing the stock cv angles or do you do a lot of sharp turning hitting the max turn steering lock? 4x4 auto setting in sport mode will engage front axles as needed for traction.

Is there a hole in the boot? Or is the clamp missing? I think the dealer would take care of the boot but the alignment might be a different story. Unless you lifted it. Why do you say your alignment is off?

Both should be covered under warranty unless there are aftermarket parts. Alignments are covered under 12/12

Hi there! Will you send us a message with your VIN and your local Ford dealer? I can look into things on my end.

I mean, it would have been covered under warranty either way. Hero is a bit of a stretch. Glad it worked out for the OP.
