Ugh.

You should look all over for evidence of chewing. You may not find any.

I had to replace some crap on my truck bc some mice got in it. Bastards.


Just sent... don't want to offend anyone.

Put a bar of Irish Spring soap in the trunk and they won't go near your car.

I had a rat that crawled up into my airbox and setup house there. I shit myself when it jumped out at me after I opened up the airbox. It had dragged in dryer lint (our washer and dryer were in the garage at our old house) and dog food. It was a damn fine rat pad, but I have no idea how my jeep was breathing.

Could be worse, could be in Canada and have Moose poop in your car or chewing on it... if a moose was chewing on your car your door would be gone.

Seriously, I'd get a full inspection of the electrical and the lines, or do it yourself if you're in the know.

A mouse chewed the rubber grips off one of my Ducati's when it was covered in the garage a few winters ago. They also chew electrical wires, I would do a thorough inspection of the engine compartment.

At this point all you can do is clean up and inspect all the wiring that you can see... Also clfbuckeye is right on... check the Vararam to see if they set up shop there(most common place) or any compartment that they might be able to move around in. Sorry bout your luck, hope all is well...
