transfer case leaking

Sucks reading stuff like this but I think most (and hopefully all) should have known the risk when the ink was put to paper on a new platform.

A new transmission is the best solution. 40 days is unacceptable though.

Took me two weeks to get into dealer and now two more weeks to get parts guess i dont have to worry about putting alot of miles on it needs a new colar and seal.

Ask them to add all that time spent in the shop to the end of your warranty... its the least they can do.

Truck is finally fixed took two weeks just to get the seal they had to remove the transfer case to fix it got home and no skid plate under it they forgot to put it back on these dealers are so incompatent 4th time at the dealer with something not done right they suck

I had a dealer do that with my old Outback, left the entire “undercarriage protection” assembly off. I won’t call what the Outback has ‘skid plates’. Of course, they d***ed around all day on the work and called me 20 minutes before they leave ‘hey, your car’s ready’. So nobody to do anything about it until the next day ! stinkers.

you should definitely complain about that. if they left off skid plates, I’d make them put it on the lift and verify --everything-- implicated in whatever work you had done (in case you had other stuff done at the same time ).

My truck developed a ticking noise about 500 miles ago, and last weekend I discovered my tcase rear seal was leaking. At the dealer now, we'll see what happens.

I'm taking my truck in tomorrow for a transfer case leak. Hopefully I don't have to deal with the same headaches from my dealership.

Did the dealer give you a loaner? What model? That's a long time to be away from your truck!
