I don't drive it hard too often but then again, these cars are meant to be driven hard...right?

Hey man, I saw this thread late because I too - have had this problem. I have been driving my 2016 2SS reasonably however, I (as most likely would) have performed a few hard take-offs & really got on it a few times.

The rubbing noise got worse and more distinguishable over time so I took it in today. I also noticed a "clicking" noise when turning which almost sounded like CV Axle issues. But I though, how the hell? This car has 4200 miles on it... They just called me and said that they had to completely replace my rear end differential + replace some part in my front-end as well. I'll give you guys a picture of the receipt when I go and get it. This is very concerning. I bought the car with 5 miles on it. How long will these replacements last?

Edit: Ahh I just read the other comment about factory not putting proper fluid levels in. That makes sense.
