Consumer Description

ENGINE WIRING WAS CHEWED AND HEAVILY DAMAGED BY RODENTS. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE ENGINE BAY IS EASILY ACCESABLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR, THERE IS NO SHEILDING. I ALSO READ THAT ON THIS PATICULAR MODEL THE WIRING INSULATION IS SOY BASED, POSSIBLY ATTRACTING RODENTS TO SAID EAT WIRING.
