Default Rear suspension cross member bearing

Has anybody else had issues with the bearing located in the middle of the rear cross member? The bearing apparently is some combination of rubber and fluid and the fluid was starting to leak. Wasn't obvious, but there were definitely some signs of leaking/draining.

Probably worth checking if your car is close to the end of the warranty in case it needs attention.

Apparently the bearing part of the rear cross member can't be changed by itself, you have to change the entire member, about a $2k job. (I was under warranty)

The bearing located is circled in red in the attached image.
