I have a 2002 Pontiac Firebird (V6, 3.8L) with 16,000 miles. I have recently been hearing a loud, high-pitched, squeaking or squeeling noise whenever I turn on my air conditioner. Also, the noise will stop when I turn the A/C off. But, it seems to be going the entire time I have the air condition running, whether it be a couple minutes or even an hour.
Another thing I've noticed is a strange smell coming out of the air conditioner when I turn it on high speeds....like Max (or even A/C) with the fan set on the highest output. It might sound weird, but it smells kinda like plastic or even a crayon. But it doesn't last very long.
Does anyone know what could possibly be going on? I bought this car back in February from a Chevy dealership, and I bought an extended warranty for it which the car is still covered by. Any help would be appreciated.
