2019 Nautilus steering rack

[northlightlinc]

Bought a 2019 Nautilus Reserve with 9,600 miles in January 2025. So just off warranty and drove it for about 7,500 miles when error messages said electric steering was being disabled along with trac control and emerg braking systems. Dealer diagnosed codes and reset codes. This has happened now for the third time in the last three months. Lincoln engineering along with the dealer have ruled out sensors and modules and has decided the steering rack is faulty and must be replaced. I've never heard of a steering rack failing except in the case of an accident etc. Any thoughts out there. Thanks.
