Transmission Fluid Leaking Problems of Mazda MAZDA5

Purchased a used 07 Mazda 5 with 37k from a Honda dealership. Was told by the dealership that the vehicle was privately owned. About 100 miles after purchase the oil filter housing, just started spewing oil. Another 500 miles later, a crunching noise began to appear in the rear end and the car was consistently steering to the right. Took it to a Mazda dealership for repair and had the rear shocks replaced stated they issue was they were leaking. The also mentioned that the vehicle was a rental vehicle owned by enterprise, but this was not disclosed at the time of purchase. At the same time transmission fluid was flushed. Received vehicle after repairs, drove another 200 miles, transmission started slipping when shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear. The rear end also started making the same noise. Issues were immediately reported to the Mazda dealership, after not having the vehicle for 3 days, no issues were found. Took the vehicle back this morning, with a new problem of the check engine light being on and the rear end always making this noise. The main technician for the dealership currently has the vehicle and I am sure that I will hear that the shocks were leaking again.
