Consumer Description
I NOTICED SOME INSULATION MISSING FROM MY ENGINE IN JULY 2016. I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS IMPORTANT UNTIL I WENT TO MY DEALER IN APRIL 2017. THEY SAID IT WAS MICE AND REMOVED A NEST. I CAME HOME WHICH IS 3 HRS AWAY AND NOTICED MUCH MORE DAMAGE THE NEXT MORNING. OUT OF DESPERATION I PUT 2 SNAP TRAPS IN THE ENGINE. I BOUGHT THIS 2016 HONDA FIT BRAND NEW IN NOV 2015. I'M NOT SURE THE EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE BUT I HAVE LOTS OF CHEWED INSULATION AND SOME WIRES CHEWED ON.
