1997 Pontiac Grand Prix 3.8L non. I began hearing a squealing sound that seemed to be coming from the other side of my dash board. This sound got louder as I pushed the gas and let off as I let off the gas. On my way home from class yesterday I heard something that sounded as if it was falling in the engine then my back passenger side tire ran it over. I went back for it and this is what I found. My car still drove me to and from work but my power steering did go out as i pulled into my driveway. Also after this part falling I smell a strong burning odor that seemed to start the second I start the car. Thank you to anyone who reads this!!
