As a potential buyer of one of those vehicles, my worry would be where they sat and how long. Reason: August 2019, I bought a new Honda Odyssey, just a few miles on the odometer. Parked it in my garage for 4 days until the roofers left. Next day, at 266 miles, the engine failed. Mice had chewed up the wiring harness to the tune of $1,633, which I had to pay to get it fixed. Turns out the wire insulation is a soyabean product, and tasty to mice. Honda’s response, all the manufacturers use this wire.
I checked my Chevy truck, to GM’s credit, they put plastic armour on everything I could check up to the last half inch. Honda just laid the wires out in the open for a 24″-30″ run. Apparently there are a lot of horror stories of wires eaten in airport parking lots near open grass. These new cars have multiple sensors which means much more wire in every nook and cranny of the vehicle.
Every manufacture is doing this, so when you buy our cars they are just a mediocre as the next manufacturer.
I had heard of this as well.
