Are boot joints covered under 5yr warranty?

[CenTexan]

I have a 2011 3.8 Tech model and the rear boot joints creak every time I drive the car. I tried jacking up each side for an hour or so and that actually made it better, but only for a day.

Has anyone had this issue? Is it covered under the 5 year portion of the warranty? Mine runs out in 4 months.

Just wanted to know so I won't "blow a gasket" when I take in and ask dealer. I've never had a car (new or used) that had this problem when only 5 years old!

I had a 2002 VW Passat 1.8T that blew the front CV boots around 5 years. For me it was the salt from the (sometimes) harsh Northeast winters that eats everything.
