Just a head's up to you guys out there that may notice a little smoke from the tailpipes after initial startup. Our 2012 EX-L 4WD started smoking a bit (after a couple of weeks). We took it into the shop and they said they couldn't figure it out but not to worry about it, just keep an eye on the oil level. They couldn't find a leak or anything. We had left the car overnight - got it back and the next day, the service manager called and asked us to bring it back because a similar case was occuring to a CT in AZ. He said what fixed it was replacing the spark plugs, which they were going to try on ours. They kept if for about three days, we went back to get it, but they didn't say what they did. Upon looking at the repair order, we saw that they spent about $6,000 and replaced the front cylinder head! Crazy, huh? Regardless, I'm a little disappointed that the engine has been "opened up". I hope everything's ok now.
Hope this doesn't happen to you!
