PLEASE HELP 2014 CIVIC DC-DC Converter?

PLEASE HELP: Went to get a bad axel replaced on passenger side of 2014 hybrid civic, and 4 days later was driving in the rain and was braking to make a turn and the car immediately had brake system, charging system and IMA all pop on at once. I took the car back to where the axel repair was done and they said they didn't know what was wrong and to take it to honda dealer. I did and they said it's the DC-DC converter, but I just find it hard to believe it failed right after having axel replaced and suddenly. I haven't picked up car from dealer yet to see the code read out and ask if they checked fuses or grounding/wiring but I doubt they would check so they could just try to bill me 3k to replace DC-DC. Am I over thinking this and this is a normal thing that happens or should I investigate further?
