Not just Honda. My Toyota Tacoma had certain wiring chewed nearly  
through. The dealer here fixed it before I left last November for  
Phoenix. Halfway there the truck started missing unless I kept it over  
sixty. Going up a long mountain grade south of Flagstaff I got caught  
in slow traffic and the engine died. Lucky to get out of that with my  
life.

I have D-Con under the hood. I also park in a different place each  
time I use it. I am thinking it may be worth it to pour a concrete pad  
to park on. Let's brainstorm; I'm sure it is a common country  
conundrum. Greasy tires?
