At random times while driving, sensor triggers front end collision dash light and notification alarm. Weather and speed has not been a factor in causing this, it has been sunny out and driving at 30 mph when this has happened.

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.
