Norfolk Police are giving away free steering wheel locks to Hyundai and Kia owners on Thursday, June 15th from 9am to 11am at the Wawa located at 975 E. Little Creek Road.
The anti-theft devices, also known as steering wheel locks, will be offered to help deter theft in the wake of a social media challenge on how to compromise Hyundai and Kia security features. Norfolk and other cities across the country have noted an increase in theft of Hyundai’s and Kia’s.
To qualify for a free lock, you must own a Kia/Hyundai vehicle with a steel key ignition, be a Norfolk resident, and present a valid vehicle registration. Push button ignition systems are not eligible.
