Steering Noise problem

I currently own a 2021 Honda Ridgeline sport and it was brought in to a Honda dealership that had diagnosed a steering rack failure. The quoted price of repair was $4,000. After doing extensive reading on this issue I learned that similar issues have occurred in later year models as well as similar year models in the Honda family. There was a recall of 1. 7 million vehicles with this specific issue. The vehicle makes loud and cracking noises and at times the steering gets heavy and also loose while driving at high and low speeds. The dealer had responded that it was a known issue in the later year Ridgeline models and there had been a service bulletin on how to rectify the issue on these models. I did not see any curent recalls from this year, however this doesn't mean that this is not a known or growing issue for the year Honda that I currently own. Please advise. Thank you.
