During a morning drive following recent maintenance for the replacement of tires car started smoking from the rear with an electrical burn smell. Car turns over and starts fine. All wire harness seem to be intact. Electrical burning smell is present each time the engine is started.

If there is smoke, there may be fire. Try localize where the smoke is coming from, use the smell to help you and figure out what is causing the problem. I would not want to drive the vehicle until the problem is fixed.
