Sounds like the rear caliper or brake piston is not releasing all the way. I would replace this and the rear brakes. It has possibly warped the drum or disk depending on if you have disk brakes or drum in the rear. Good luck.

You probably have a build up of contaminated grease in you steering wheel column. You have to open up the panel under the steering wheel to take out the pieces to clean the grease off with rubbing alcohol or something of the sort. The grease are creating a bridge and causing a short. That is why you smell the burning.

Why does it mean when there's a burning smell from steering wheel and then the car stalls?

A burning smell from the steering wheel, followed by the car stalling, often indicates a serious issue, such as a malfunctioning power steering system or overheating components. The burning smell could be due to overheating fluids or electrical problems, which may lead to a loss of power steering assist. If the car stalls, it could be a result of the engine shutting down due to overheating or electrical failure. It's essential to have the vehicle inspected by a mechanic immediately to prevent further damage.
