Default Sick of the burning smell

Have a 2012 Power Wagon. Recently (past several weeks) getting a burning smell inside the cab. They did an airbag recall so I thought maybe it might be from that, however it's been back to the dealership with no answers. The AC/Heat do not need to be on -neither does the blower. It's almost like the smell you'd get from running the heat in your house the first time for the winter. Like dust burning, etc. Extremely frustrating as it just started happening and no one seems to have a cause. Smell occurs after driving for about a minute and does not subside. Any suggestions?

Not sure if you have a cabin air filter or not. What about leaves or stuff in your cowl?
Good luck, hope nothing bad happens.
