Smoking on cold startup

Smoking on cold startup
I have noticed a one second puff of white'ish smoke on cold startup over the last two days. The smoke dissapears after a second and the truck runs as normal...with no power issues. There is no smoke visable on warm startups. The oil level is normal as it was recently changed.
12k miles on an 05 Edge
My question is has there been any recalls due to this? Has anyone brought their truck back and had the problem corrected?

I'm with the others but i dunno about a cracked block at that young mileage. It is possible but i doubt it.
Blown head gasket, possibly. Could be faulty from the factory. Not saying that's what it is but a possibilty.
Only other thing i can think of is Ford and the other Big 3 use plastic for the intake manifold. Stupid move if you ask me. Maybe your getting some moisture in the engine then as soon as that combustion chamber gets hot, it burns off the moisture. The whitish smoke from your descriptions sounds nothing major for now anyway until you get it looked at. -Mike-
