Hey guys -

Was cleaning my car yesterday and noticed fluid inside the left rear rim. Put it up on a lift and my friend who's a mechanic confirmed that fluid was leaking onto the back of the rotor and onto the inside of the rim, originating from the outer differential seal. Back to a Ford dealer to fix as this is a 2013 and under warranty. I was wondering if anyone had a similar issue?

Thanks,
-Paul

Have you open tracked the car? If so that may be the cause. This happened to me with my '07 Shelby GT 500. They replaced the seal under warranty, no problem. Never leaked after they replaced it.

FWIW
