Kia Sportage Owner Tired Of Thefts Returns Car To Dealer

Behrouz Alimoradi, a Kia Sportage owner, decided to take a drastic step after his vehicle was stolen in Federal Way. Fox 13 News reported that his frustration increased when he discovered all the windows of his car were smashed upon its recovery. After dealing with four separate incidents involving the same vehicle in just two years, and spending thousands of dollars on repairs, Alimoradi reached his breaking point.

In response, he returned the stolen and damaged Kia to the dealership where he originally purchased it and opted to make a four-hour journey back home on foot. An employee from the dealership declined to comment, citing legal constraints preventing them from discussing the situation. (Fox 13 News)
