    While changing the front diff oil on my new to me 2014, I noticed some grease spray in a circular pattern around the inner boot. Seems pretty obvious something went bad, I have a 3 month powertrain warranty with the truck when I bought it, worth my time bringing back to the dealer?

    Eventually they start to leak. There's a lot of centrifugal force acting on the axles. Ya may wanna get it into a shop so they can inspect it. I'd get that done before it completely opens up and you get road debris in it.
