ml320 steering leak

i recently had the power steering pump hoze and clamp replaced, two weeks later i have experienced another leakage, a local mechanic says the power steering rack is leaking on both ends. is this a sign that the entire rack system has failed, or are there any seals that can be replaced. the power steering system seems to work fine, except for the leakage.

Has the P/S hose recall been done???

NOT many shops will try to repair a rack BUT most can install a reman unit..

My brother-in-law had a leaking rack on his ML320; the mechanic made several attempts to repair, but finally ended installing a rebuilt rack.
