This was a first... :(
 

My car is parked inside every night. I left it overnight in a well lit parking lot while I was staying at friends and in the morning it didn't start.


I took it to the dealer as I thought it was a warranty issue and it turns out a Rat made a nest and chewed through my cam angle sensor harness... $250 dollars later.


This ever happen to anyone else?

Wow that sucks.


No snow yet? Lucky.

That sucks!

This is exactly why I paid the dealer extra for the small rodent repellent film option, money well spent it seems.

Is this for real? This is indeed a damn first.

Sorry to hear.... but nice color!

Had a squirrel fill the intake on my Lancer with peanuts when I was away for a week once.
Had a possum hide on my driveshaft on my 58 Chev (it didn't end well for him) once.
But never had a rat eat wires (yet)

A squirrel chewed the injector wires off my Ex brand new Malibu when they first came out. Had just enough to barely solder them back on and the little shit came back and finished the job to were we had to order a new harness..

Not so!

I stopped that search immediately! I will not accept that rodents could chill in your car lol.

I found a rats nest behind my bumper cover when I pulled it off to install fog lights. Would post a picture, but it's on Instagram and I'm lazy.

I had a old caddilac that a rat go into. Starting problems also, but he went through the engine harness.
I wonder how the rat got past all those underpanels.
I hope your front bumper/wheels are ok.

happens to all kinds of cars, new and old. i dont think ive ever heard of it happening here in socal, but ive read plenty of threads from different forums of it happening to others :(

Rats. What? It was just laying there. Someone had to pick it up.

Had a cat get into the belts on a van... Very unfortunate situation.
