At Monday’s city council meeting, a resolution called on the mayor’s administration to file suit against Kia and Hyundai for the burden a rise in thefts is having on the city.
CLEVELAND — A nationwide surge in stolen Kia and Hyundai vehicles is gaining attention at Cleveland City Hall. At Monday’s city council meeting, a resolution called on the mayor’s administration to file suit against the manufacturers for the burden the thefts are having on the city.
Holly Ausnehmer’s 2021 Kia Sportage was among the 459 of the two makes of cars stolen in December 2022.The car was missing for 10 days before police recovered it on the city’s west side. The alleged thieves broke the vehicle’s rear window and removed the steering column. Both are hallmarks of a trend fueled by a TikTok video demonstrating how to bypass Kia and Hyundai ignition systems.
In addition to the frustration experienced by theft victims, Harsh said it’s been a burden for the city’s law enforcement. “I can only liken it to the opioid cases that the cities and counties across the country alleging public nuisance,” Pollis said.Those corporations settled the lawsuits before they advanced through appellate courts. Pollis believes a similar outcome is unlikely with the auto manufacturers, but a class action lawsuit may have more success.
