LEONARDTOWN, Md. – St. Mary’s County has not seen the nationwide surge in motor vehicle thefts of Hyundai and Kia vehicles that metropolitan areas have experienced in recent months.
However, the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office has seen a recent uptick in thefts and attempted thefts of Hyundai and Kia vehicles.
Those vehicle manufacturers now have software updates available to deter theft which are available free of charge to vehicle owners.

Yeah, it’s the cars’ fault, not the criminals’ fault. Just like guns are at fault and not the violent criminals using them. Just ask Joe.
I’d say it’s the buyers fault. Hyundai and Kia only exist from stolen designs off other car manufactures. Support theft and reap the rewards.
