Rodent proof?

i thought this was a joke but it turns out it is a genuine story.

"Mr Matchett urged other Merc owners to be wary of the plastic components as they may not be ‘rodent-proof’."

A spokesperson for Mercedes-Benz said: “This must be an unfortunate and upsetting situation for Mr Matchett and while we do offer an extremely comprehensive warranty, it doesn’t cover damage caused by external influences, such as wildlife. Unfortunately, our technical experts haven’t been given access to inspect the car so it’s difficult for us to comment further and our recommendation is that Mr Matchett contacts his insurance company.”

Sad indication of todays society that he believes this is Mercedes's fault
Sorry. I don't get this one.
I agree with Mercedes, it's not their fault, why should they pay?
Because it's probably Mercedes fault they didn't make every component i the car 'rodent proof'
