Why are rats afraid of cages?
Not all rats are afraid of cages. My rats have always loved their cage, and when let out to play would wander in and out at their leisure. If you have rats who are afraid of their cage maybe there is something in the cage they do not like, maybe the cage is too small, maybe the cage is not comfortable enough or in a good position. Maybe there is something near the cage that scares the rats or maybe they do not get enough playtime and then resist going back into their cage. There are many reasons why a rat may be fearful of their cage, so there is no definitive answer.

How can you get your rats to stop chewing their cage?
Rats are always going to chew. It is instinct. Their teeth never stop growing and they must chew on wood and other things to keep their teeth ground down. You will need a cage suitable for rats that they can not chew through. This would be a metal cage with bars close enough together that they can't escape or an aquarium with a metal cover. Be aware though, aquariums are not ventilated like the wire cages and must be kept very clean as it will hold ammonia and cause further problems.
