I brought it in a second time and was told by the dealer that fan speed fluctuation could be a normal function of the climate control system as there were no error codes that could be found in the car's computer. So far it hasn't gotten any worse. 
Jan 2015 The problem was that there were black puffs of smoke upon first start up in the morning. The dealer said they couldn't replicate the problem, but did a software update of some sort for the engine control system anyway.
