With the engine not running Use the hood release inside the car pop the hood then go out to the front of the car release the secondary hood latch open the hood.Then look down at the belt area Use a flash light since its dark Grab the belt see if its loose.Let me know if its loose and we will go from there.If its loose you probably have a bad belt tenisor.
