So I spent the last few days installing a new head unit in my 2012 GT since my Scosche dash kit finally came in. I went out a couple of hours ago to grab some food and let the car idle for a bit while I made a call on the new HU. After ~10 minutes I noticed a burning smell and a few seconds later got white smoke coming from the hood.
I immediately turned it off and popped the hood. The smoke was coming from the radiator cap and there was a significant amount of red fluid leaking both from the cap and on the ground. After it cooled down I unscrewed the cap and there was a large pool of what I assume is tranny fluid mixed in with the coolant. I'm having it towed the the dealership in the morning but I'm pretty bummed out that it's having it's first problem after only ~4k miles. Anybody have a clue what the problem could be?
