I was told by the mechanic my passenger front cv axle was torn and leaking grease. Is this a urgent repair? I notice alot of vibration and low acceleration. Does that mean I only replace the cv boot or also the cv joint?

A torn boot means your joint is contaminated. I never replace boots. A torn boot on cars I service is an automatic CV axle replacement. They’re inexpensive to purchase and easy to install. The best time for a complete swap was 45 minutes, 07 Yaris, either side. The worst was 3 hours, passenger side of a V6 RAV4.
