San Diego’s city attorney is suing Kia and Hyundai, alleging their failure to install industry-standard anti-theft technology in several of their cars.

City Attorney Mara Elliott filed the complaint in California Superior Court on March 16 alleging the car manufacturers are liable “for creating a public nuisance,” joining other cities that have filed similar complaints or are planning to do so, including Seattle, Cleveland, and Milwaukee.
