I have a 2003 Mazda 6 with 122,000 miles. I was driving fine yesterday. I stopped to put gas. When I think started my car, I heard grinding noises coming from the front. I stopped to check if my wheels were loosing air but they were all fine. As I was driving, the more I hit the gas pedal, the louder the sound got. I also smelled a little burning smell and noticed the car was riding to the heating level. I parked the car and turn it off. When I turned it on again, the noise was still there. I checked the engine coolant and the liquid is still in there. Can someone help me out?

What you should do is, get a pair or ramps and get in under your car, you'll be amazed at what you'll find loose and busted off an auto that age.
SOURCE: There is a grinding, squealing
Probably one of two things. Either the brakes are shot (caliper frozen, pads worn down to metal, etc) or a front hub bearing. From what you describe sounds more like a wheel bearing. Most modern cars do not have replaceable bearings, you have to get the whole hub. Depends on how mechanically inclined you are to replace. If not a local repair shop can handle it instead of the dealer.

Failed Transmission Again
