"Addressing the Rise in Kia and Hyundai Thefts: Anti-Theft Upgrades and Recall Proposal"
TL;DR
The Baton Rouge Police Department has announced a program offering Kia and Hyundai owners the option of a vehicle computer system upgrade or a steering wheel lock to enhance car security. The computer upgrade prevents the car from starting, and if the upgrade is not possible, a steering wheel lock will be provided. Even second-hand car owners are encouraged to contact the dealership to determine if their vehicle needs an update.
