Hey guys i was just looking under my truck and saw a spot that might look like grease/oil on the CV axle connecting to the wheel hub. Is this cause for concern?

Just found the same. Passenger is a little worse than Driver. Have appt with dealer JULY 20!!! Actually have 3 issues. Slow leaking coolant and camera/adaptive cruise/collision assist failure. Not a lot of help but sharing. My oil change guy is solid and he noticed and stated it needed to get in.

Thank you for sharing! my driver side does not have any stain on it at all. I thought it mightve just been some excess grease that worked it self out! I have an appointment to have it looked at on July 6th, we shall see how it goes!

Please update if you will and I will do the same. Due to the number of concerns I have I’m calling Ford to see if they can expedite and to document the failures on this truck for warranty purposes. Fingers crossed for the diagnosis!

Replaced under warranty. Glad my oil change guy alerted me.

I don't feel that way but I did get front pinion seal replaced under warranty so my front end is a concern.

To be honest I never noticed any issues leading up to, or during the known issue, and just today I was able to have a longer drive with many turns and I did not notice any difference. Maybe the issue was found early on and corrected before an issue could be noticed??? Or maybe it’s just me and my driving habits?

I wanted to check on the repair from August. Found this on the driver side. Slung grease everywhere. Ford and dealer will be getting a call tomorrow. Frustrating!

Stock suspension, right? That way they can't blame it on a lift.
