Where I live, this comes as no surprise. I've found rats crawling inside the engine bays of mine and my partner's vehicles the last couple weeks.
Apparently putting a few bounce sheets in the engine bay can deter them. Just remember to keep the sheets away from heat, and don't leave them in there if you go for a drive.
My girlfriend rubbed some cat toys on our cats and put it under her hood for a couple nights. No sign of rats going back in since!
If anyone has any other tips for fending them off, drop it below.
Strobe lights hooked up to timers. Read this anecdote from a farmer, and haven't been able to test it out (which is good!).
