Noises problem
2001 Pontiac Sunfire 4 cyl Automatic 159000 miles

I started hearing a squealing noise appox. 2 weeks ago. I can not tell if it is coming from the rear or the front of the car. It souds like a break squeal but it makes this sound when I have my foot on the gas. Also today, all of a sudden when I press on the gas I hardly have any power. I can barely get to 35 miles per hour and when I press on the break and release and press on the gas the car jerks. Please help!!!

The squealing noise could be a worn belt. The loss of power is more than likely in your exhaust. I would have the catalytic converter replaced.
