A landowner permit is needed to trap chipmunks, opossums, porcupines, rabbits, raccoons, skunks, tree squirrels and woodchucks in Maryland. This free permit can be obtained by calling the Maryland Nuisance Wildlife Hotline at 877-463-6497. Squirrels are considered small game in Maryland so if you want to shoot them you have to have a hunting license. The Squirrel season is Sept. 5–Feb. 27. Chances are you will not get caught, but it only takes one nosey neighbor to get you a large fine and your rifle taken away.
Make sure it's not a groundhog if all the chewing is on the underside of the vehicle. Had my starter and 4 wheel drive taken out by a groundhog years ago on my secondary truck. he paid the price.
Chipmunks took up residence on top of my manifold on same vehicle and were not deterred by removing the nest, then decided to chew the seal on the garage door and come on it. persistence, but them two paid the price of a few pellets.
one mouse committed suicide in my wife's heater fan while the other came in and ate some funny blue stuff and died in the wall while another couple must have got overheated in the grill!
never had a rabbit do anything but burrow a little.
there are many ways to deal with critters that decide to not live in peace along side of you.
Yes, squirrels are game animals and are subject to some strict penalties for killing out of season, safety zone violations, licensing issues.
Metal duct tape and plastic split wire covers have kept my RVs gas lines protected from squirrels for over ten years after losing one the second summer. My wife and daughter feed them so we have plenty around.

Hose is wrapped with metal duct tape, then covered with plastic wire cover.the plastic split wire cover might deter them? I will definately try this... I bought some braided stainless hose covers, but was too small to fit over my AN fittings so could not get it installed.
