I found your car this morning on my run at 5:30a and called the police. I’m so so sorry! But so glad you weren’t hurt.

Thank you so much for calling the police! They were able to inform me around 630am while I was trying to take my dog out before work.

Thanks man! Already got a rental and insurance is going to take care of everything. It’s just annoying, I just got it 2 months ago and now I have to go through the new car process again.

At least the insurance doesn't sound like they're yanking your chain.

Wishing you better luck on the next car.

Hopefully, insurance will cover it and you can buy something better (aka not a Hyundai/KIA)

Insurance is going to cover everything which is awesome. It’s just annoying I had just gotten the car 2 months ago and now I have to go through the whole new car process again.

If I were you, I would be happy. Your insurance rate probably was a lot higher than it needed to be for a comparable car. I advise you to look into buying a Mazda or a Toyota, even if it is a little bit older.

I was about to ask what new cars you were considering. +1 on the Mazda suggestion.

I got hit with Hyundai insurance penalty this year it seems probably just gonna sell it now since once already two guys tried to carjack me around last Christmas. Fuck driving in this city.

Not trying to be a dick, just curious: Were you aware of all the news circulating about how easy it is to steal Hyundais and Kias these days? I'm genuinely curious if buyers don't know; don't care; are told their model isn't affected; etc...

I didn’t know until after we purchased the car about the TikTok challenge and what not. We also weren’t told that the cars were targeted. It’s my fault for not doing more research. We were kinda in a bad spot at the time and needed a car ASAP and that car was available and in our budget.
