Somewhere on this forum I found the part number for the 'KIA' branded remote start option for the Forte Sedan. I took the number to my local dealer (who had of course never heard of it), called KIA Canada who apparently told him that there probably wasn't enough demand in Canada and the part wasn't available.
Hello? KIA? Anybody home? Considering the weather up here, no one needs it more than us. If you need a volunteer to test the first unit, call me...
Then the dealer told me that I could get an aftermarket one installed for $700 +. Yikes, for that kind of money, it better come with someone to brush the snow off the car.
