I would assume that the replacement battery pack is warrantied for just the two remaining years of the original 8 year warranty? Just curious, as I knew that the higher initial price of the Hybrid automobile as well as the battery pack replacement would need to be figured into cost ownership of the car, if I went in that direction and kept it as long term as I tend to do.
Also, the amount the dealer was able to bill Honda for the warranty repair is substantially lower than what it would cost you for an out-of-warranty replacement, which I understand is ~ $4,000 for this vehicle.
Does this change any thought you might have about how long you might keep the car vs. getting another Hybrid after the battery warranty expires?
