2021 Explorer issue - feels like flat tire but it’s not

[JRevels]

Inspection showed a slight leak from front drivers inner axle that is puddling slightly on oil drain pan. Replaced gasket… $500 … have had 2 episodes since (1st week after repair) and now, 4 weeks later, where at highway speeds, it feels/sounds like I have a flat or riding on rumble strip but neither are the case. Not noticeable at speeds less than 60 mph. Any ideas what this could be? Concerned dealership won’t be able to get me in soon… should I not drive? Thanks in advance for any thoughts!

Are you missing a wheel weight?

check your struts too. Have seen plenty of cars on highway with one tire bouncing wildly up and down from blown strut/shock.

Welcome to the Forum.
Have you taken it back to the place where the first repair was done? It could be related to the work they did.
