Description of the problem | My 2013 toyota avalon wiring harness was chewed on by a rodent . It caused problems with the running of the vehicle , the traction control , the cruise control and was operating on 5 cylinders . The dealers repair shop said that a rodent eat through the wires and toyota would not warranty this problem . The car was parked in my driveway next to another toyota product that is a 2006 and has never been chewed . I have driven toyota's since 1988 and have never had this to happen . I think toyota should be responsible for the damage if they are putting any type edible product in the vehicles they produce . |
