Description of the problem	I have a 2004 chevrolet tahoe. At 59,000, a pinion seal leak was discovered. I took it the next day to the chevrolet dealer where i purchased the vehicle new. Upon evaluation, it was determined that the leak had resulted in excessive metal friction in the gears, requiring a complete overall. There is no warning system for low differential fluid and leaks are not visible from the ground as any fluid normally blows off while driving. The seal on the rear axle pinion, which provides power to the rear wheels, could leak fluid, causing the wheels to seize and lock. Note that gm has recalled many similar models, but not the tahoe at this time.
