had the rear seals leaking after 6 months, 120,000 miles. was fixed at local ford dealer and then broke down a week later after 1000 miles. I was told by ford dealer in different location that the hub was put on wrong. tore up all bearings. they fixed it and 8 months later local ford dealer said seals were leaking and bearings bad. they replaced and I drove 40 miles before breaking down. bearing went out and fused to axel. they replaced again and put in new axel housing. right away started having loud rubbing noise, as carrier bearing on drivetrain is going out. as they fixed the back and straightened everything out other problems further up the line develop. I believe the axle housing was milled wrong at the company and these problems will develop in many transits.
