Seems unlikely the rack is bad at this low mileage, but maybe you hit a bad bump or pothole sideways?

Suspension work on a car like this is pretty sinple and any shop can handle the work. I’d look for a second opinion if dealership is putting a big repair quote your way. Edit: I just saw you had two opinions already
