In a recent turn of events, there has been a staggering surge in thefts of certain Hyundai and Kia models, with an unbelievable 1,000% increase over the past three years. It seems that a social media post revealing an easy theft technique for these particular vehicles has inadvertently paved the way for a spike in criminal activity. However, fear not! Hyundai and Kia are leaving no stone unturned in their efforts to combat this issue.
Both Hyundai and Kia are taking extensive measures to address the problem and ensure the safety of their customers' vehicles. They are distributing steering wheel locks to owners, offering software updates, and implementing new software designed to make their vehicles more challenging to steal. These proactive actions should provide car owners with some peace of mind.
