1 Alternator/generator/regulator problem

Failure Date: 05/20/2017

Rodents ate through wiring between alternator and battery. Determined that Honda changed to soy based material to coat wiring on all 2012-2015 Civic models. The soy based formula becomes heated and attracts the rodents when parked. The problem is pervasive and dangerous since electrical wiring and harnesses to all major engine components are affected.
