New cars will smell very badly for the first few days. If you encounter problems with car. Do not call dealer until smell has subsided and car has cooled down.

dude this sounds like you cant wait to break your new toy  where did read this?
EVERYONE DO NOT DO THIS TO YOUR CAR!!! the smell might go away but the computer is set, the dealer will for sure know what you did to the car, specially the newer models. they have computer monitors built in all cars that will show up at the dealership. In case somelight goes on in the car the computer registers " I think" the last hour or so of engine operation before the light went on. and the only way to reset that light is to bring it to the dealer and at the time it will void your warranty,  with this crazy idea
