steering rack leaking

I noticed that my ps oil was way below minimun , after crawling under it ( without jacking it ), it seems to be be leaking around the pinion shaft. 2008 liberty with only 30,000 miles and 40 months old .Base warranty is up, I dont know how generous Jeep is on goodwill repairs ?
Anybody else had similar issue ?

There have been reports of steering racks on 2008s failing before. Dont know exactly what part breaks, but 2009s and up supposedly came with stronger racks.
