I believe the diff torque spec is like 15 Ft/lbs first pass and 30 ft/lbs the second pass

Apparently there was something serious enough to warrant a full rear diff rebuild by the dealership. Never really explained what the actual problem was or the cause. But whatever this defect is caused me to have to get the front diff rebuilt as well not long after.
Side note: make sure you check the torque specs on any diff cover removed by the dealership. Several of the diff bolts were barely hand tight on both diff covers after I checked them after the break in.

Gotcha! I just sent info over to my dealership. Going to try and get the ball rolling on it. Thanks for the heads up.
