ATLANTA — Atlanta police are offering free steering wheel locks to owners of Kias or Hyundais who live in the city of Atlanta.
Kia and Hyundai vehicles manufactured between 2011 and 2022 are particularly vulnerable to theft because of a flaw with their ignition switches which can be easily bypassed and their lack of engine immobilizers.
The free steering wheel locks are first come, first served!
