Thumbs down steering RACK

Big puddle on the garage floor yesterday, ends up the rack and pinion is pouring out power steering fluid.....
In the shop now getting a new (rebuilt) rack, about 8 to 9 hundred dollars....
Mechanic says, 80,000km should not happen....... POS.

Hindsight is 20 / 20

True but its a Compass. Made of the cheapest material by the cheapest parts manufactures who won the bid.
