Look and see if the smoke is coming from the rear exhaust pipe, or from under the car. If it's from under the car, it probably will burn off if it was something that got on the hot exhaust. Should stop shortly, if not take it back, they may have created a leak. If is's coming out of the pipe???

it's coming from the exhaust. think i'm going to take it back and raise a little attitude. they have already heard my mouth about the dash after 9 months waiting.

If it is coming from your excaust it is probably a head gasket. Check your dip stick and see if there is antefreeze on it.

My thoughts exactly. You might have some serious problems on your hands.
