I have purchased a brand new 2022 transit custom and the cables have been chewed through TWICE by rodents.
This has cost me time, money and so much effort to sort.
The first time i thought i was unlucky but when it happened again i was very annoyed. Speaking to people and even a member of the Ford service team they have said the new transits cabling underneath the vans are made from soy protein and recycled tomato skin. I find this absolutely pathetic no wonder the cables keep getting chewed through.
I have been researching online how to stop this from happened and its resolved me to spray my cables with WD40 and every time i park the van i leave a pot of rat poison under the van. This is not what i expected from a brand new transit custom!! You buy brand new to avoid having problems especially when the first time i sent it in it had 150 miles on the clock!! I am so annoyed and upset this has happened and when i took it to the garage their answer was..well its quite common. Sometime needs to be done about this i cannot continue to feel like everytime i get out the van a rat could go underneath and chew the cables.
Someone get in contact and lets get this resolved.
