I will personally never buy a Kia due to their refusal to fix widespread theft issues. And it’s not just Kia owners who are affected. The thieves steal cars and crash them into other things, making everyone less safe. Whoever made the call to install faulty ignition locks needs to be in prison.

  Just because a model is not impacted by the specific issue doesn't mean that it isn't more likely to get broken into and damaged. The issue impacted all KIAs and the insurance for them unfortunately.

    You are wrong. It hasn't impacted the insurance in my kia.

      Maybe it is just location dependent.

  So are Kias subject to fewer regulations than every other brand of vehicle that didn’t have this issue?
