I'm concerned regarding the reports of soy based wiring and the attraction to being consumed by rodents.

I bought a new 2017 Honda Fit on August 8. On December 8th, all of the warning lights went on, and when I took it to the dealer they told me rats had chewed through engine wiring. This is not covered under warranty and I have to pay $1000 in repairs. They obviously know this is an issue with the soy based coating they use, since they manufacture Capsaicin tape specifically to address the issue. Since I can't physically access all the wiring in the car, I'm not sure how this is supposed to solve the problem. My previous car was a 2003 Volkswagen that I parked in the same spot for years with no issue, nor has my husband had any issues with his 2003 Mitsubishi.
