Q: When rodents chewed up a sensor lead on our Acura RL, we filed an animal vandalism claim with State Farm as part of the comprehensive coverage of our policy. They paid, except for the $100 deductible.

Q: We had the same problem with rodents chewing wires under our car. We had to have the entire wiring harness replaced. The bill was over $5,000. Should this happen to any of you out there, be sure to contact your insurance company.
