Is the Kia Forte ex air conditioner working?
I picked up my 2014 Kia Forte EX a few weeks ago and I am really enjoying it…..until today. It has hit the 90+ degree mark today and the air conditioning has decided it doesn’t really want to work. I tried it with the recir on and off, not maxed out but about 90% of the way…..nothing.
