Smoking on cold start

I have called Ford corporate and told them to initiate a buyback. I refused to take the vehicle on Friday at the dealer. It smoked on startup (big surprise). Quite frankly I don't give a damn what they do with it.
They replaced the injectors and said hey look we fixed it. The level of incompetence is staggering and I paid too much money to screw around with this anymore.

All I have is a CAI. It would be a huge reach for them to try to claim that caused this issue. Regardless of that, I have seen others on here say their dealer said the same thing. It's all BS and I'm just done. I don't care what they do with it and I'll drive their car until I get my money back from ford.

Update: Ford corp called me back already and started the buyback request.
Dealer also called me today to say, we let it sit longer and it smoked more (I'm shocked, well not that shocked). They also opened a case with ford customer care. It's almost like I knew what I was talking about. I won't hold my breath for an apology from the tech or the dealer.
