Recently went thru this in the last two weeks and had two vastly different experiences. First time was warrantied. Both front axle seals and they even replaced draglink / tie rod. Draglink was flipped and less than two weeks old.
Les than 5 days later brought it to a different dealer (for several reasons) and the work was not warrantied. Rear diff had to be rebuilt.
I contacted FCA to find out what the deal was and how I’d ever know. Tough to bring it in and then once it’s diagnosed and half apart to decide not to proceed. They were just as confused as I was. To be honest I wasn’t even expecting the first round of work to be covered but after it was I had a false sense of security. They asked if it was clear it was modified and I said absolutely they even charged extra at the first dealer for the alignment because of it.
I’d say hope for the best, expect the worst. I’ll admit the axle is still ‘factory’ (nothing connected to it is tho) while the driveshafts are not so probably easy in their eyes to deny the differential rebuild.
