Just got a letter in the mail from KIA about a recall on the KOUP. I have no idea what it's about yet... Won't find out until Monday when service depart opens. Anyone have an idea what it could be?

Recall # SA012 and SA013
 
Doesn't your letter state what the recall is? When I got the seatbelt recall notice for my sedan it said it was for the seatbelt...

OK, I looked them up...they are not recalls. They are TSBs which means if you take your care in for servicing they should fix them OR if you are having any of the symptoms it provides the fix. Appears your dealer is proactive...nothing wrong with that.

SA013:
in relation to some early 2010 MY Forte / Koup models which were produced from Feb. 24, 2009 to Aug. 19, 2009. The action will involve a reprogram of the cruise control logic to provide an improvement developed by KMC for uphill driving and to ensure that all Fortes are operating with the same logic. KMA does not believe that customers will be aware of any change in vehicle operation.

SA012
Some Forte/Forte Koup vehicles manufactured from July 16th to August 20th, 2009 may experience concerns of inoperative A/C blower, high/low cooling fans or engine starter motor. The concern may be caused by poor contacts inside the four (4) relays located in the engine compartment junction box as shown below. It is recommended that any vehicle within this production range be repaired prior to retail sale to a customer. Additionally, any vehicle coming in for service should be checked and if necessary repaired before it’s returned to the customer.
