Unhappy HELP!!! Will Dealer fix this?

I just came back from vacation and when I opened my hood today, a lot of wires and hoses had been bitten by the mouses............. Do any of you guys know if the dealer will fix them for me under warranty?

Thanks in Advance!!!

Not likely

It is very unlikely that the dealer will do the repairs under warranty.

Sounds like something you should address with your insurance carrier, not your dealer.

Oh, and call an exterminator!

Doubt it, as already said it's something your insurance will have to deal with.
