smokes from Front bumper area
Happy New year.
I have had my G for about 5 months still under 1200 miles.
havn't driven for many days due to weather.
Yesterday it was sunny and drove about 90 miles, it was 90% freeway driving.
I got home at night, turn the G off, and walking to inside; and my brother goes; hey !!! your car is smoking!!!!!
I checked temperature gauge, then it was normal, it was about 38F outside; not too cold.
So I took my G out today again, same happening.
Smokes come out from front bumper maybe Radiator area after car turned off.
Is this normal??? Never happened other my cars , even colder weather. even my friend's honda civic don't do this. its kinda embarrassing.

Doesn't sound normal to me. What does it smell like, rubber, or something else? Literally, maybe a small animal crawled up there and died and you're like charring it every time you drive??? lol When there's smoke, have you just opened up the hood to try to see if you can find a source?

just a lot smokes came out from front bumper grill area. I dunno I had oil change at 1000 miles it was like 2 months ago.
when I turn the head lamp on, then I could see more even the engine is off.

does it smell like something is burning or is it just evaporated water?
