Description of the problem	I have 2005 highlander limited v6 awd. The car has issues with the differential fluid leaking after 30,000 miles or every two years. The dealer fixed the leaking for my car at 35,429 miles (no charge due to warranty) in 2008; however, the differential was leaking again at 67,329 miles this year. I contacted toyota and they told me that the warranty for the differential is 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. Once the vehicle is outside of these warranty guidelines the cost of repairs becomes the owner? S responsibility.
