Ok so coming back from the store, about 30 min ride, I notice a slight smell like rubber or the smell when a hauling unit / truck tractor gets on the brakes to hard in front of you on the highway. Looked over everything as well as I could, did not seem to be a belt was more from the rear anyhow like when I opened the cargo area, any ideas.

Trash or plastic from the road get caught underneath around an axle, exhaust, brakes, etc? Parking brake not fully disengaged? Newly frozen caliper?
