My husband changed the brake pads on my Jeep Liberty. Now the back right tire smells like it's burning. He checked the brakes and said everything looks fine. Is it safe to drive?

It is comming for new brake shoes to smell. As long as he hasn't overadjusted them they should be fine. The smell should go away in a couple days.
