I got my axle seal fixed in December, and many other seals replaced since i have had the car...i use the dealer near me since i dont know of any good shops around here...anyways im not sure whats going on but these things are leaking every 6 months on average..I have no clue what the hell is going on any help?

Might be a burr or worn down spot on the axle where it meets the seal, might have also gotten torn when the axle went in on the last fix!! I've taken sand paper to my axle when I did mine last where it meets the seal because it felt a tad rough and had a couple questionable spots, but that's because it was my truck. A shop doing the work might overlook that because it's not their truck!
