At 101,000 miles both rear axles are leaking, leading to contamination of rear brake pads and parking brake shoes. The pinion seal between the driveshaft and rear differential is also leaking. The axle seals are integrated into the half-shaft assemblies so fixing the problem requires replacement of both half-shaft assemblies and complete replacement of the contaminated brakes. Very expensive.
