service manager cant deny a warranty claim. he can tell the customer right there it may not be covered but its not up to him.
and yes its clearly abuse but it cant be proven they cant deny it. otherwise they will burn up in court. i am not confusing it with an aftermarket part causing problems its always the same. provie it or fix it.
we had similar problem with G35 where he claimed he was burning oil. then 2 days later someone videotapes him at an auto cross bouncing off the rev limiter. bye bye free engine

Breaking a part, especially more than once, that is essentially unbreakable under normal use, is in itself proof of abuse.

There are many simple metallurgical test that can be performed to determine if the axles were defective.
If they are not defective, then the cause very simply is abuse.

It continues to amaze me how people can beat the hell out of their cars and expect dealers to pay the freight.
It is hard to generate any sympathy for dealers but guys like the OP do it.

BURNOUTS~~lets think on what really happens for that Excited thrill of tire's smoking. .
1- you bang the tranny into gear in order to force the tire to spin
2- after the tranny bangs into gear that force is then transfered through the light weight carbon drive shaft
3-then the rear diff and it's spider bearings get the full force transferring that energy into your axles n BAM the WEAKEST LINK WILL BREAK!!!!!!!!!!

Since when? LOL ... Do you know how to burnout? You stay stationary while you burn out homie, there is no "banging" of gears....

In a RWD car, you would dump the clutch, press teh gas down then use your left foot and put it on the brake pedal to hold the car in place. You would keep bliping the throttle to keep the car burning out.
I have never used drag radials or slicks before at the track but plenty of people do it on this forums. A quick burnout is needed. Usually the water pit helps a lot better than a dry pit.
A lot of people break axles at the track due to too much grip.
