Rochester, New York, is planning to sue automakers Kia and Hyundai over a spike of vehicle thefts in the city that officials say is due to inadequate anti-theft measures.
The lawsuit follows the trend of other cities that have announced similar litigation, including Cleveland, San Diego and Seattle.

The lawsuits come as viral videos have circulated on social media in recent months that feature tutorials on how to steal Kia and Hyundai vehicles, with many videos showing the cars are easy to hot-wire by using only a USB cable.
