Why does my Jeep Grand Cherokee smell like burning rubber?
Often the smell of burning rubber is an electrical wire that is overheating and causing the plastic sheathing to melt and burn. Sometimes there can be enough resistance to heat a wire but not cause the metal to melt, just the plastic. Trace out with eyesight and your nose, to find the area and possibly the faulty wire. If not findable, pass what you could discover onto someone that is able to look further into this matter.
