Two days ago, we charged the freon in the car, which had never been done before. We had gone all last summer with no air. The air worked and everything seemed fine. Last night, though, a really strong, sort of sour chemical smell started coming out of the vents, even with no air on. With heat or air on, the smell is stronger. It burns your throat. We thought there was a leak, but, a friend said the air wouldn't still be working if there was a freon leak. Can you please tell me what the smell is and how to fix it? The car is not drivable in this condition, even with the windows down.
