The SUV was stolen for a third time even though the local Kia dealership told Oliver and her fiance and business partner, Edward Loukas, the car could not be stolen without the keys.

CLEVELAND , Ohio - It was supposed to be a simple fix, to stop Kia thieves in their tracks, but a Cleveland couple who already had their SUV stolen twice are outraged, telling 19 News the anti-theft upgrade didn’t prevent it from happening a third time.

“My car should have shut down,” Oliver said. “They told us when they put that module on in June of 2023 that it wouldn’t be able to be stolen without the key, period. If they don’t have the key it won’t start. That’s what we were told. But was that the case, apparently not.”“I’ll never buy a Kia again. I will never buy a Kia again,” said Loukas. “I don’t care if they give me one. I won’t accept it.

“It’s been one thing after another, and it’s not just my car being stolen, it’s the nightmare that comes with it,” Oliver said. The Cleveland couple tells 19 News they have also been forced to be thousands of dollars for rental cars and were forced to wait months for their recovered Kia to be fixed.
