Same thing here - 22' Wildtrak - substantial leak in front pinion seal - 16K miles, normal driving. Dealer will have for over a week (ordering parts - supply chain issue - no surprise here!) - will also be looking at differential. IMHO, this shouldn't be happening and it seems to me to be a design flaw. How many here believe this issue will turn into a problem and an eventual recall?
Well, after the pinion flange was replaced - no more leaking. Everything is running really well at the moment. We took it out on the trail last weekend and put it through it's paces and no leaking!

I hope that your Wildtrak is back soon with no more leaks.

So came across this as my 24 BL Sta-Bar warning light came on last night leaving work. took it to dealership and they just told me that it is the hydraulics for the unit and will have to be replaced. I have only had mine for almost a month and like OP only been on normal roads so far. At least they are getting me a loaner (bronco sport).

A bit of a thread bump but just had my sway bar disconnect unit replaced under warranty due to leaking. I just noticed some drips on the driveway
