After I flat tow my 2022 outer banks there is a smell of burning rubber when I first drive it after the tow. Tires are fine and the tow works fine.

More than likely it is road crud burning off the exhaust system. Keep the climate control system in in recirculated air mode for a while after you first start up the engine after towing.

I have experienced this same smell but have not determined what is causing it yet.. I don't think it is anything burning off the exhaust system though
