I have incurred at least two instances of damage to the trim around the left rear wheel on my MYP. I took delivery of the car in early June, and it was pristine. Noticed the first damage in July, and then today noticed it had increased. It almost looks like bite marks, or someone has taken a file to it. I have not hit any road debris, and the other wheel wells do not have any damage at all. Only left rear. Any idea what could be causing this?

I would pull the maintenance panel off and possibly pull the Frunk tub out (two bolts and removal of the Frunk light panel) to check any wiring harness damage.
A people have reported rodents chewing the wiring and causing expensive repairs. Not exclusive to Teslas either. I had a mouse nest in a blower motor in an old car that was a pain to fix.

I've never heard of bitter apple being used, but I've read about crushed red pepper keeping other animals out of vegetable gardens.
But even then you'd basically have to cover the entire car. It's best to trap/kill them.
Might be something bigger than a rat.. That second one is quite high up for a rodent.
