How are you…
I have a Kia with an immobilizer, so I can’t join the class action lawsuit. But what happens when thieves think my car doesn’t have one, try to steal it, and end up damaging it? Now I’m left paying for repairs, and it feels like I have no options since it wasn’t actually stolen.
Has anyone else dealt with this? What can I do about the repair costs or preventing it from happening again?
You help on this is welcome…
The particular processes and solutions available to you may differ based on your insurance coverage, 
local laws, and the degree of the damage to your Kia. It’s best to take quick action, speak with the correct experts, safeguard your rights, and make sure your car is fixed or replaced as needed.
Provide details about the attempted theft, including the time it happened and the identities of any possible suspects. 
Insurance claims and any upcoming legal actions will require this.
Provide all required paperwork, such as the police report and pictures of the damage. 
Most likely, an adjuster from your insurance company will come out to evaluate the damage and provide you a repair quote.
Obtain estimates from various mechanics so that you can evaluate costs and offerings. If your insurance coverage allows, you can research additional security measures like a steering wheel lock, alarm system, or tracking device.
Check to see if there are any current recalls for the Kia model you own, particularly if they have to do with security or theft prevention. 
Ask to have any necessary repairs or upgrades carried out if there is a recall that applies.
