    While good to think they will, chances are they will not :(.

    Glad you are sorted(y).

    Just to finish this off..... dealer took nine days to complete repair.
    I went there and seen the box that had the repair parts. It wasn't the entire inverter.....
    Internal part, looked high voltage.....they used my original inverter housing.
    Car running fine....battery working better and now I do not hear a whine noise at certain speeds.
    Pretty sure the whine was the inverter going bad....I still hear the electric motor noise but the car is quieter.
    I did clean all of the battery connectors and some were corroded so maybe that's why the battery is better.
    Thanks again for all of the help!
