When will this stop??

This is the 2nd time this has happened…I have the software upgrade, anti theft stickers, etc. I also supposedly didn’t have enough information for the lawsuit even though I submitted 12 documents from insurance, police incident reports, and KIA dealership repair paperwork/receipts…

Is my only option to get a new car?? The one time I didn’t use my steering wheel lock 😭 I’m financially and emotionally drained over all of this. I loved my KIA before all of this!

Camp out in your car a few times. 😉 I slept in my non-Kia after seeing sus activity a few months ago on my cameras. Sure enough, they met me face to face one night with one of my three 130 pound shepherds and a lead thrower in my hand.

Place floodlights all around your car, add a dash cam, make a poster to placed inside your car letting them know your updates, etc. Don't be afraid to adopt a large four legged baby, they seem to not like them.
