Under the guise of safety most manufacturers have or in the process of blocking 3rd party batteries. Electrify America also at one point in time only allowed "certified manufacturers" to charge on their network, blocking "homemade" EV's and repaired EV;s
Tesla Famously have blocked their supercharger network from rebuilds as well
It is not a technical limitation it is an economic and political one.
>That was done at a dealer under warranty
And most likely with out that warranty your car would have been economically totaled. Which is normally any repair that costs 55-60% of the current market value.
