Check your coolant hose

While bringing my car back to the dealership to have bubbles in the paint corrected my motor blew due to the fact that the coolant hose wasn't fastened correctly.......word of advice: you guys might want to check that out

i have kind of a strange issue, the computer tells me that the coolant level is low but last I checked it was just fine ... this only and I repeat only time it happens with the cold starts when the temp is below 50 and once it is above that level it doesn't happen again ... should I be worried?

I dunno about worried...I never worry with a brand new car.....i love warranties, but I have never heard of that happening

Don't know if any of you noticed, but the hose tends to droop onto the nose of the supercharger and causes a burn = hole over time. Get a spacer or twist tie and pull the hose away from the heat.
