Sporadic burning smell when the heat is turned on. Event has happened at least 6 times now and it only happens when the heat is turned on (vehicle was purchased Dec 2008 and current mileage is 12,200). It has happened when running at low and high speeds - very sporadic. And it's not the air coming from the outside or from other vehicles because we've immediately stopped to check when it occurs and it's not a smell from the outside or from other vehicles.
