Spray some cooking spray on the rubber seals around the car doors and then rub it with a paper towel. The doors freeze because of snow melting into the seals and freezing overnight; the cooking spray oils should protect against that melting water. You can try also some silicone spray.
There are two likely reasons for the rubber smell - either the drum belt has melted and snapped or the drum seal has rubbed too much and melted. Most likely cause would be poor drum bearings or consistent overload of washing. I am assuming this is a front loader as you have not provided any details of make or model.
If it is making a squeaking sound then the sound would be constant, more of a whistle. If there is a squeaky noise coming from the unit it is likely to be either a loose bolt or a perished seal or rubber in the valve.
I scraped off as much melted rubber as possible - using my thumb nail - then used a product called Goo Gone to melt the remaining rubber. I put Goo Gone on an old cloth and rubbed off the remainder of the rubber - again with my thumb nail.
Sometimes the door seal can vulcanise due to reactions from detergents. If you have noticed this then replacement is the only option as there will be water leak from the tub during wash. check this link: door seal
i didn't i got a car mechanic to do it basically their is a gap where other wires go through to the engine/ battery and the seal is made of rubber so drilled the rubber to make the hole bigger once fitted melt the rubber to seal it back off
enough metal to disperse the heat and a lid that is not sealed completely, letting out extra heat. and a certain type of rubber. i've had one for 4 years and it hasn't even come close to melting yet.
