#535087May 3, 1998
POWER TRAIN:TRANSFER CASE (4-WHEEL DRIVE)
I FOUND THE CAR HAS A LEAKING TRANSFER CASE/YOKE ASSY. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENTS ATTENTION. THEY INFORMED ME THEY ALL DO AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS REFILL IT AS IT GETS LOW. BUT BEING A MEMBER OF THE CLUB DSM I KNEW THIS TO BE FALSE, IN THAT IT IS POSSABLE TO SEAL THE LEAK SOME WHAT WITH RTV. AND I DID THIS MY SELF WITH SOME SUCCES ASS THE YOKE/TRANSFER CASE DID NOT LEAK AGAIN FOR ALMOST A YEAR, I HAVE TALKED TO THE SERVICE EPT. ABOUT HAVEING THE RECALL ON THIS THAT WAS ISSUED ON THE ECLIPSE MODELS AND WAS THEN INFORMED BY THE SAME SAID SERVICE DEPT THAT THE AWD GALANTS HAVE A DIFFERENT TRANSFERCASE/YOKE ASSY AND DO NOT LEAK. I THEN ASKED WHY I WAS TOLD PREVIOUSLY THAT THEY ALL HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND SHOULD JUST LIVE WITH IT.
