Wow I just payed 158.00 to have wires spliced to a oxygen censer in my ford because mice ate the wire covering and exposed the wire. Well Ford is using a plant based wire covering that Rodents like to eat so they made a nest with the hood insulation on the engine and had a ready source of food. I was told by the Dealership to put Dryer Sheets in the engine compartment and no more mice. So you think we only have a problem with our old cars. Isn't technology great . Go Figure !
