Tom, sorry to hear about the thefts of your Kia's. Do you have keyed or keyless ignition? I have a 2019 Kia Soul with the keyless ignition. Kia and my insurance company contacted me last year to advise of the theft problems involving these cars. Kia at the time offered a steering wheel lock at no charge, your car had to be certain models and years and was sent directly to your home. I was advised that most of these thefts involved the keyed ignition models and they were using a usb cable to start the cars. Maybe you can contact your dealer and see if the offer is still valid. Also I was told by another party that there is a class action lawsuit against Kia and Hyundai about this problem.
