Toyota played "dumb" on the reason for this. We've had vehicles parked at our home for 29 years and NEVER had one wire chewed by mice. Other vehicles parked next to mine had mouse tracks, but NO wires even nibbled on. This happened in the heat of summer. After my research, I found that Toyota is using wires with peanut oil bases in the insulation. Therefore, actually attracting mice. Even though they played dumb, the Service Dept. stocked "rodent deterrent elec. tape".
The 2nd time this happened, 5 days later, the original damaged wire was untouched, but many other ones were. I called Toyota Care, the agreed to cover the expense, one time only.
If a vehicle mfg. is going to create a "food buffet" for rodents, then they should inform their customers or cover the repair under a "mfg. warranty".
