Default 2021 Chevrolet equinox

My wife told me this morning the car was running strange. She said that the tires were skirting and that smoke was coming through the vents without the AC being on. Any suggestions on what could be the issue?

Hey, that sounds pretty serious. If the tires are skirting and there's smoke coming through the vents, it could be a few things. First, check the tire pressure and tread. Low pressure or worn-out tires can cause skirting. For the smoke, it might be an issue with the engine or a coolant leak.
I'd also recommend checking the belts and hoses under the hood. A slipping belt or a cracked hose can cause both skirting and smoke. If you’re not comfortable checking these yourself, it might be best to take the car to a mechanic ASAP. Better safe than sorry, especially with smoke involved.
