Powertrain warranty is usually "Internally Lubricated Parts" only, which wouldn't cover an actuator. Good luck.

The 'diff actuator' on my 06 V8 is not telling the center diff. light to turn off, instead it just blinks, but everything else works with the 4WD. And this is not covered under the powertrain warranty. I have checked with 3 other dealerships and they all said the same thing. $2500 to replace the actuator. Mostly because they have to pull the xfer case to get to the actuator. Best of luck with getting your problem taken care of under warranty.

If you call corporate and yell loud enough everything is covered. It is mechanical rods inside the transfer case so it should be covered despite being an electrically controlled componant. Dont go by what the dealer says. Service advisors dont really know much when it come to warranty.

That's the next thing i'm working on. The problem with mine is that everything works fine except for turning off the light on the dash.
