Default air suspension compressor is replaced at 23K

Last week my car got a warning of "air suspension problem. call the dealer". After 3 days at the dealership, the car is back with a service note:
"... FOUND AIR SUSPENSION DOES NOT OPERATE DUE TO SHORT INSIDE COMPRESSOR. REMOVED AND REPLACED AIR SUSPENSION COMPRESSOR. ..."

The car is a 2015 with about 23K miles. How can the air suspension compressor have a short this early? Any thoughts?

First time I have heard of this problem, it is normally the air shocks.

Bad solder joint or the like...it happens, albeit rarely in the robotic assembly world of the last 30 years.

A short is probably just a manufacturing flaw. It happens.
