1 Lose Power Steering problem

Failure Date: 02/21/2018

My truck is a 2012 Toyota Tundra 4x4 limited. It has 100,000 miles on it. I typically only drive it on the weekends. I was driving and made a turn, all of a sudden I lost power steering. The accordion boot on the passenger side was full of power steering fluid. It blew a seal on the steering rod. The whole rack and pinion had to be replaced. 18 hour labor job, and with parts $3000. 00. I almost got into a accident because I couldn't turn it. You have to drop the engine assembly to change it that's why it cost so much. This has to be a factory decfect. Any input?.
