NHTSA Complaint #11517414 — 2018 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

- Due to a lack of a sufficient Theft system in my vehicle, the vehicle was easily stolen by individuals who broke into my back windows, removed the steering column and used a USB drive to hotwire the vehicle. The vehicle was found later by Minneapolis police, and my insurance company deemed it a Total Loss, as they would no longer insure the vehicle because the same models have such a dramatically high theft rate. - My safety was put at risk due to the vehicle's ability to be easily stolen and driven by individuals with criminal intent, leaving me vulnerable without a vehicle and having my personal life turned upside down. I have had issues with my finances, loss of work, and personal well-being due to the vehicle's theft, because of Hyundai's failure to install standard security software in the vehicle, which has resulted in Hyundai being investigated for violating national and state specific consumer protection and safety laws. - Hyundai did not notify me about this lack of security in the vehicle at the time of my purchasing the vehicle.
