Consumer Description
AFTER DRIVING FOR FEW MILES, A RUBBER BURNING SMELL STARTS TO COME FROM UNDER THE HOOD. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY FOUND A PLASTIC SHEET UNDER THE CAR BUT I DRIVE IN CLEAN NEIGHBOURHOOD. I DO NOT BELIEVE THEM AS I CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AND UNDER THE CAR A DAY EARLIER TO SEE IF I COULD FIND ANYTHING BUT FOUND NOTHING. THE RUBBER BURNING SMELL IS STRONG AND CAN BE FELT JUST STANDING BY THE CAR AND IN THE CABIN WHEN HEATING IS TURNED ON. I PARK THIS CAR IN DRIVEWAY NOW INSTEAD IN THE GARAGE BECAUSE I SUSPECT MY CAR CAN START A FIRE FROM WHATEVER IS BURNING SOMEWHERE UNDER THE HOOD.
