TikTok视频在威斯康辛福克斯谷的Kia和现代汽车失窃事件增加, 引起警方警告和安全提示。
TikTok videos are fueling a rise in Kia and Hyundai car thefts in Wisconsin’s Fox Valley, prompting police warnings and safety tips.
在威斯康辛州福克斯谷地区, TikTok引发的汽车失窃趋势正在持续,
Fox Crossing Police warn of an ongoing TikTok-inspired car theft trend targeting Kia and Hyundai vehicles in Wisconsin’s Fox Valley area, with recent attempted thefts reported over the past weekends.
这种趋势是由社交媒体视频推动的,视频显示如何使用螺丝刀和USB电缆启动这些汽车,促使现代和起亚公司在2011年至2022年期间在约900万辆汽车中安装防盗技术,尽管该解决方案尚未在美国推出.
The trend, fueled by social media videos showing how to start these cars using a screwdriver and USB cable, prompted Hyundai and Kia to install anti-theft technology in about 9 million vehicles from 2011 to 2022—though the fix has not yet been rolled out in the U.S. An anti-theft software update in 2023 reduced thefts by 64%.
当局敦促居民把车辆锁上,把车停在安全区域,使用超市反盗窃装置,更新日程表,并考虑方向盘锁。
Authorities urge residents to keep vehicles locked, park in secure areas, use aftermarket anti-theft devices, schedule updates, and consider steering wheel locks.
提示可以提交Fox Valley地铁警察,也可以通过 " 四方社区犯罪制止者 " 匿名提交。
Tips can be submitted to Fox Valley Metro Police or anonymously via Quad Communities Crime Stoppers.
