I just got back my vehicle from the dealerships service center and according to their finding their was an issue with the vehicles starter. I drove home parked the car in the garage then turned off the ignition. The vehicle would turn off, so I pushed the start button again but still did not turn off then seconds later I smell smoke. I immediately backed up to have the car outside the garage . I hit the start button again to turn off and this time the engine shut down. Heavy smoke was coming out of the engine compartment so I just stood at a distance . 10-30 minutes later as the smoke subsided I decided to pop the hood open and still there's smoke from the engine compartment. I have a video but cannot attach.
