Car warranty claim issue company not providing insurance

Sir, I own a Honda car and it had standard warranty for two years. 4 months back I had an issue with the steering rack that must be covered under warranty. I went to the servive center and reported the issue. They checked and said it was a minor complaint and they had done some lubrication to it. My warranty expired last month and I have the same steering problem right now. When I contacted the service people, they are now saying that some parts of the steering rack should be changed and I'd have to bear the full amount. My question is, as I had the issue and reported the same within the warranty period, isn't the the parts should be replaced free of cost.? The problem occured when the car was within warranty period. I think the honda people cheated me saying that they have resolved the problem just to get me end with the warranty period and forcing me to pay huge amount for it. Pls reply sir.
