Owners of certain Hyundai and Kia car models made between 2011 through 2022 are eligible to receive money for out-of-pocket losses, software upgrades and other reimbursements after a $200 million dollar settlement was reached Thursday stemming from a rash of thefts. The lack of an anti-theft immobilizer in the affected models has allowed for the cars to be easily stolen with as little as a screwdriver and a USB cord. The settlement does not affect Baltimore City’s lawsuit filed earlier this month against the carmakers. Car thefts in the city have doubled in the past year with more than half involving Hyundai and Kia vehicles. Baltimore County is also seeing a rash of thefts. (Baltimore Banner/WBAL 1090))
