The warranty is for broken parts, right? You are admitting nothing is broken, only cosmetic damage? I don't see the issue. The levers did their job and didn't break.

5 year warranty on lever bending or breaking. Seems neither occurred. Why would they pay for you going down? Cosmetic problems mean you can ride home instead of having a broken lever and needing a tow
