Have a 2013 Class C on a 2012 Ford E450 Chasis. Noticed a small leak under the front end during my last visit to the storage yard. I think it has been there for awhile, just was very slow. Took it to the local Ford dealer today and they will be replacing the steering gearbox that was leaking. Still under warranty so....all is good. Figured I would report it since many of you run a similiar chasis.

Slight Correction - Dealer informed me that they replaced the input seal that was leaking from the steering gear box. didn't replace the entire assembly. Picking it up tonight and I am back in business.
