If a calliper is "hanging", it could be causing the brake pads to press against the rotor and overheat the brakes. You may want to see if the calliper is dragging.
Friction from excessive braking causes heat, thus the lubricant on brakes release this burnt smell.
The clutch is slipping and needs replaced.
I advise you to perform a careful examination of your car's brake system.
Like Rubber
A rubber smell from the front wheel wells of a Dodge Caravan could indicate a few potential issues, such as worn brake pads, a malfunctioning wheel bearing, or a problem with the tires. Overheating brakes can also produce a rubber-like odor, especially if they are dragging or not releasing properly. It’s advisable to inspect the brakes and tires for wear and tear or any signs of damage. If the smell persists, consulting a professional mechanic is recommended to ensure safe operation of the vehicle.
