Yeah part of the problem is that EVs haven't been out long enough and at sufficient scale that there are enough capable techs to go around. You have to really know what you're doing to get inside the black box. I think only recently has BCIT begun offering an EV specific program.

But yeah can totally get into the pack and methodically rebuild whatever part has failed, just like you can rebuild an ICE motor as needed. You don't have to just throw out the whole thing.

Good overview here (scroll down a bit):
