Due to the immobilize and chipped key the only way to get a new key is to get it reprogrammed. Do locksmiths offer that service?

Are they suing YouTube also since they allow videos that show how to steal a car on their site? Yeah, didn’t think so.

“Liberal Washington thinks car thieves are victims of the cars!!”

Then why on earth would their very own DMV license those vehicles??

Mine does. All he does is car keys. He’ll do regular door locks and whatnot but he’d rather not. Don’t cost nothing to reach out to a few and ask.

RE: If I were Kia and Hyundai, I would close all dealerships in Washington and declare problem solved.

But why just the Korean cars? Are there not other car brands that are being stolen?

RE: like blaming the woman wearing a short dress for getting raped.

Actually, it’s more like suing the dress maker for making the short dress.

I had a 1977 Oldsmobile Delta 88 that was stolen back in 1988.
They smashed the steering column with a hammer then used a screwdriver to pull up a rod that would start the car. I had to use the same method to start the car till I got a replacement steering column. I was told that GM used pot metal for the column and it is easy to smash.
The car was recovered the next door minus the radio and they used the hammer to smash the windshield. You could see the imprint.
