The passenger side axle inserts directly into the front diff and will spill oil the moment you remove it. The front diff only holds 0.6 qts so you definitely should top it off. I've already done this procedure with the speed sensor replacement which I also elected to do myself, so i can do it quicker than a first-timer. The driver side axle inserts into the FADA and leaks no oil.
Also, a large pry bar is handy to pop the axles out.

The whole point of buying a new or newer car is to have warranty protection. That's why they cost more than old cars with expired warranty. So I respectfully disagree with this. In my opinion, the qualtiy of the diagnoses and repair depends on which dealer you take your vehicle to and whether they honor warranty repairs. Luckily, my dealer service at Sheehy Ford is excellent about covering all of my repairs since 2019 free of charge. I had both CV boots and axles replaced then the FADA TSB both under powertrain no hassles and no charge.

Right now, I'm not fixing anything due to tearing off the distal bicep from my right arm back in February. Surgery in March, and now undergoing rehab.
I bought Ford's 6 year, 75,000 mile Premium Care Warranty. If I don't use it within 60 days of expiration, I get a full refund. Pretty good deal.

This is what I received at the time of purchase. Was told if I don't use it and apply for the refund within 60 days after expiration of the contract, I get a full refund of the purchase price. May be worth your while to check with the dealer you purchased the ESP from. I just noticed " unauthorized modification, alteration to the vehicle" excludes you from a refund. That takes out half of the forum!

The FADA O-ring replacement would have necessitated refilling the front differential. Nothing is every guaranteed when dealing with shops but i would consider it a given. For the passenger size, if they are lazy and quick enough swapping old for new, then it's possible not to top it off and not have major problems ensue within short timeframe.
