Default Battery Replacement

Recently purchased a 2006 LS 430 with 29500 miles. Purchase from a non Lexus dealer, battery went dead, dealer replaced it and billed me. Visited a Lexus dealer and spoke with the road assistance individual and he said that Lexus would have replaced it at no cost.

Is this correct?

Default B2B Warranty

It's possible. The Lexus warranties are:

Basic (bumper to bumper): 4 yr. / 50,000 mi.
Drivetrain: 6 yr. / 70,000 mi.
Roadside: 4 yr. / Unlimited mi.
Rust: 6 yr. / Unlimited mi.

So, the battery could have been covered by either the B2B or the Roadside warranty.
