It could be your heater fan bearing. But more than likely its something in your engine compartment that is making the smell. Such as oil burning on the exhaust or a worn accessory belt.

Why does your new car smell like burning rubber?

My new car did not smell like burning rubber! When I had a gate smelling like burning rubber, a rubber belt was stuck and instead of turning with a piece of machinery, was caught. I would check the belts in the front of the car and look for one with a worn or burned place on it. It could also be a wire or tube resting on an exhaust manifold or on an exhaust pipe.

How come you can't smell fire but what it burns?

Because fire is just heat of what’s burning. Like fire on its own is noting. It’s not possible. Fire is just heat, but if you put that heat on wood it’ll smell like burning wood. same with meat and other stuff. Heat doesn’t have a smell.
