A new exchange among thieves: They steal the wheels because of air pillows

After the catalysts, who have been stolen because of the precious metals in them, car steering is the new target of thieves in the United States.

The mania for the catalysts and precious materials in them is so big that in some parts of the world they're stealing intensively from cars. Now there's a new trend, which started in America, and that's stealing the wheel from the car.

However, in Detroit and the surrounding area, many car owners were victims of these thefts, most often those who own a Chevrolet Malibu and Equinox, broadcast Telegrafi.

How can you explain the new phenomenon that has prevailed among criminals? The answer is a coronavirus pandemic!

Of course, coronavirus is guilty of everything, including the lack of air pillows, because factories have been closed for a long time, and now they cannot meet demand.

It is said that mechanics pay well on the black market in order to get valuable air bags, and thieves will be ready to deliver them by removing the entire wheel on which the pillow is located.

In Chevrolet models, a new wheel with an air pillow costs more than 1,500 dollars and imagine how much more you'll have to pay for a wheel from an Audi A8 or a BMW X6?! /Telegraphy/
