How many miles? I would expect one of a few things.
Either they: Nicked the seal when installing it over the axle splines Or Did not notice a worn axle bearing, which would place more pressure at the top of the seal, alowing fluid to seep at bottom or They did not notice a galled surface on the axle shaft which has worn the new seal |

I've got a '98 Tacoma that my mechanic noticed one of the rear axle seals leaking. Since it was still under warrantee at the time I took it in and the dealership replaced both rear axle seals as well as both rear brakes. It only had around 45,000 miles on it, so maybe theres a problem?
