2017 Mustang Started smoking from rear ?

[AlexhadanM3]

I was sitting at a light today and some one pulled up next to me to tell me my car was smoking from the rear! I look back and see lots of white smoke and the car making a weird clicking/ Chirping sound. I pull over expecting the car to be on fire or something but nothing was there. There was no evidence of anything on fire or anything. What the fuck happened!???

Only mods are the Roush axle back. Car has 4,500 miles on it.

white smoke means check your coolant level.

Coolant level is fine. I drove it home and it didn't do it again.

You ran over a chicken and it got stuck to your hot exhaust. L

Did you catch a smell of it at all?

Could be a lot of things, some serious some not at all.

Coolant is the first suspect. Did it smell sweet?
Residual oil is the next - did you recently have an oil change done? Maybe They overflowed some.

The lesser - maybe you caught a plastic bag or something on your exhaust, not just your tips but anywhere from the engine back. Take a look; it'll be evident.

forgot to put handbrake down?

Warning light on the dash will blare if you drive more than 2 seconds with the ebrake on
