Wife called me while driving home on the highway today. Her description to me was it felt like she was rear ended and then immediately had a burnt rubber smell inside the car. The car still drove perfectly fine and she made it home and by the time she got home the burnt rubber smell was gone.
Looked over all the suspension components, nothing off there. Looked at the belts and while they are probably due for replacement due to age anyways neither had snapped. Looked over all pulleys with the engine off and then on. No frozen pulleys, no bad bearings either. AC clutch spins freely by hand when the engine is off. No blown fuses, no lights on the dash.
Took it for a quick test drive myself and the car seems perfectly fine. Any insights to what might have happened or could be a potential culprit?
