Software Problems of Kia Motor Optima

Anti theft security system is non-existent. There is a current known issue on the internet on the ease of theft of any kia or Hyundai to certain years of manufacture. I am currently a single disabled person that could be a victim of vehicle theft because of a lack of this security software that kia did not include on my 2015 vehicle. This kia/Hyundai known issue could potentially leave anyone stranded in a dangerous situation. All other prior and current vehicles are equipped with the security software. Currently kia & Hyundai has provided lock bars for certain police departments to hand out, however . . Not in my area. I am receiving warning letters from my insurance company and have heard of some totally dropping coverages on all vehicles manufactured without the security software. This is a very dangerous situation and I believe that all vehicles affected should be issued an immediate recall and software update provided by the manufacturers at no cost to current owners of these defective vehicles. A proposed class action lawsuit was started in September 2022. In the meantime. . What happens to innocent people who go to a grocery store or doctors office only to find that their car had been stolen while they were inside? or what happens when they can no longer receive insurance coverage because of the ease of this known lack of security originally promised from the manufacturer? these particular kia/Hyundai's are missing a "key" anti-theft device. . Their keys lack computer chips for theft "immobilizer" systems that other car manufacturers have as a standard theft deterrant during those same years of manufacture & currently have on all new vehicles. A mandatory recall for repair should be issued immediately before all insurance companies refuse to insure these vehicles! anti-theft technology was included on the sticker price but not installed! I am afraid to go to the grocery store!!.
