Well yes, and no. Of course the more you use any mechanical part the more it will wear. But, the rack & pinion steering assembly is lubricated and should last the life of the vehicle. So, using it should not cause any excess wear unless it was not getting proper lubrication. I would say that it failed because of a lack of lube not use.
