This was the third time the woman said her Kia was stolen from outside her home since 2019.

MILWAUKEE (CNN) - A woman in Milwaukee says her Kia has been stolen three times, even after she installed a free security upgrade meant to prevent this crime from happening.

    “ This software update makes it so that even if they try to plug that USB port in, it’s not going to disable the ignition immobilizer,” Emily Falecki said. “It’s going to keep that intact and it is going to sound the factory alarm.”

    **Falecki said on Friday that part of this upgrade requires Kia owners to lock their cars with a key fob.

    If you don’t use the key fob to lock your vehicle, the upgrade is useless.

    “At this point, I don’t want to invest in Kia or Hyundai at the moment, like, I definitely am looking for a new car,” Nguyen said.”

    So …she’s just refusing to use the fob? Like how many cars work?
