GL450 8-cyl

Power steering failure. Dealer resealed rack head assembly and replaced power steering pump. It's unclear to me how a sealed reservoir and related parts are leaking when it was designed by the manufacturer as part not subject to wear-and-tear deterioration. My research revealed NHTSA campaign id number: 08V682000 but dealer said it did not apply to my VIN.
