They're only covered under warranty IF you get the full bumper to bumper. And he's right, they do cost $1000 to replace new. Homey don't do the used parts game, been there, done that, replaced the same part half a dozen times, no mas.

I have owned many cars with EEC systems that I drove for many years and well over 100,000 miles and I have never, ever had a 'computer' related failure.

Generally, EEC processors do not fail and certainly not when near-new. Sensors will sometimes fail, not the processor. That's why used auto EEC processors are cheap to buy (about $200.)- they are rarely needed. If you have a processor that fails and you wish to pay $1,000. for a replacement, be my guest.

Salesmen are notorious blowhards who will say anything for a sale or just to smooze you. If you choose to believe them, that's your option.
