Hyundai is providing a new update that is supposed to prevent the thefts from happening, but one recent theft victim says she was never notified.Thomas’ vehicle was stolen on Sunday, Oct. 22.
Thomas caught the thieves in action on her security camera. In the video, one thief can be seen taking the broken window from the vehicle and placing it in the next-door neighbor's yard.According to data from IMPD, as of September 28, they have recorded 751 Hyundai thefts. There were 125 recorded for 2022 entirely.
While Thomas claims she didn't know about the software update, Hyundai says they notified all customers via mailing address listed in the Hyundai system. As a result, locking the doors with the key fob will set off the factory alarm and activate an “ignition kill” feature so the vehicle cannot be started. Customers must use the key fob to unlock their vehicles to deactivate the feature.Hyundai is committed to the comprehensive actions we are undertaking to assist customers and communities affected by the persistent theft of certain vehicles not equipped with push-button ignitions and engine immobilizers.
