We have a 2014 sport with right around 5,000 miles on it. Today while setting in the grocery parking lot I noticed a excessive amount of white smoke from the exhaust. The smoke does not smell like burning oil but it does smell like burning something. Being Sunday tomorrow and Labor day Monday I may not be able to get it in for service until Tuesday does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this and do you think it's safe to drive to the shop around 10 miles away.
I did some research online and most things said white smoke generally means a blown head gasket or cracked head allowing coolant into the cylinders. I'm hoping this is not the case, as far as I know it has not overheated at all and the vehicle health report does not show anything wrong for what that's worth.
Thanks for any ideas on what could be wrong and any advice
