All they owe you is what you had prior to the failure.
Very likely refurbished but it’s up to them.
Neither. It will have the balance of your original 8 year warranty that came with the car.
I don't have information on what Tesla actually does to refurbish a pack. However I would expect to receive a pack with used cells/modules, all matched with others of equivalent age and total Amp-Hour (or kWh) usage. I expect the cells to be equilivent or better than the pack being replaced. I also expect all circuit boards to be inspected and replaced if there are signs of corrosion. Also, some components, such as the contractors and maybe fuses, are likely replaced with new. The pack enclosure vents and seals should all be replaced the new parts of the latest design to prevent future water intrusion and corrosion.
Like many things, Tesla is mum on this. I suspect Tesla reman packs range from one simple fix to all new cells and hardware. What packs they can't fix, I hope are recycled.

Would be good if this is the case but I'm hearing differently as you can see from this post.
For your piece of mind, recommend taking before and after pics of your pack label.
"Acceleration reduced. Performance may be restored on next drive"
Sooooo I just got this car. It's a 2018 P100D just over 50k miles. I was driving and then hit the pedal to get by someone. Then this message popped up. No regen braking and couldn't accelerate hard at all... Message still there smh
A couple
Ok I'm new to this stuff to be honest this is my first tesla. How would I go about doing that?
The pack label is located by the front passenger side tire. You'll have to get on the ground to see it.
Pack stickers often fall off or are removed. As we've seen lately it's more and more likely they mean essentially nothing as Tesla has occasionally remanufactured packs into old shells without bothering to remove the existing sticker.
