Since Kia/Hyundai is the only automotive group to have this problem, I'm going to go ahead continuing to blame them.

I agree and still it's also the lack of regulation that enabled it to happen, and 2nd order effects of it is the increase in carjackings.

It's a pretty good argument for the regulation, since everyone else is already doing it just make it the standard.

Of course you are. The alternative is to blame the governments (of places like Chicago or Milwaukee), or the people doing the theft.

Why are those alternatives for you?

I find it very easy to hold the governments, people, and companies as all culpable in the own way.

Exactly. The situation should be examined like the NTSB does for plane crashes, usually a proximate cause and other contributing causes.

Maybe we’ll see a return of The Club™
