Only 79,000 miles on the vehicle and both rear axle shaft input seals blown out because of a clogged pressure valve that can happen anytime. If not caught in time it can ruin the axle shaft and cost even more. When I called around to get price quotes several of the repair shops noted this is a recurring issue with Toyota and have done several over the past few months. $600 was the best price I found, had quotes of $850. I have heard this happening to other cars at 40,000 miles or less. The manufacturer should fix this at no charge
