    dealership won't recommend anything if you aren't getting a dash light.

    You can read a first hand experience if you search for posts by member uart. He chronicles living with a obviously weak battery. He got some (2??, 3??, more??) years out of it before it finally lit up the dash. He also did a post recently about his HV Battery replacement experience.
