State Employees Who Own a Hyundai or KIA may be Eligible to Receive a Free Steering Wheel Lock

Over the past several years there have been an increase in thefts of certain Hyundai and Kia vehicles in the Milwaukee, Madison, and surrounding areas. Criminals are targeting Hyundai/KIA vehicles without engine immobilizers. 

In general: ​
If the vehicle has a push-button start, it will have an immobilizer. ​
If the vehicle has a key ignition, it may not have an immobilizer. 

The Wisconsin State Capitol Police Department partnered w​ith Hyundai and Kia in an effort to combat the thefts. State employees are eligible to receive a steering wheel lock ("The Club") at no cost.​ Please click here to make a request.
