Yep, that's what I would have ended up doing as well if I didn't find this thread. And replacing a steering rack is a dreadful job.

I'm also interested. Haven't torn my car apart yet, but I believe this is my issue after reading this thread.
My 2013 only has 58k miles and it started at 44k.
Is this an age related issue? Or mileage/wear and tear? Or simply a defective part?
Is there any sort of recall or TSB for this?
Definitely a semi-serious issue that isn't normal.
Wow...
This really could be what's been driving me absolutely insane for over a year now.
What started as a minor shuddering noise under hard braking has gotten to the point it sounds like my entire steering rack is held in with bolts halfway unthreaded. Banging around aggressively at even the slightest bump.
Literally never something I'd ever find on my own.
