I don't see the battery failure being excluded from those two lines. Clearly, the policy was designed to exclude lots of stuff that goes wrong on an ICE car. I suspect you'll need to pay for the new battery. Then sue the warranty people for payment. As to what a court might decide, that's a big question mark. I suspect the warranty people will do everything possible to not pay out hoping you'll give up. If Oregon has a small claims court, it's far easier and cheaper to do, but there is an upper limit. In some places like CA, the limit is $10K. For more than that, you'll need lawyers and it starts to get really costly.It comes down to these two lines
The Tesla ESA was actually a good warranty, relative to a typical dealer extended warranty like the one you got. I hope you can get something out of the dealer as it feels very scammy.
