After the car fully warms up, about 25 or 30 minutes there is a burning smell. The dealer said they have no idea what it is but has admitted to smelling it. I brought it in for service on 10-28-99 and left it for two days. Dealer checked electrical system and found nothing and also checked tempature because it seems that the heater blows extremely hot air. I have also brought car in numerous times for faulty brakes and each time dealer can't find anything wrong with them! .
