sounds like it should be HER PROBLEM.

Have someone stand (or squat) right next to the car when you put it in gear and look closely and listen. Also get under the car and look for damage. Take the wheel off and see what's rubbing (smelly). Find what's bent. You may have a small problem or really big. You may need to just see if you can get a free estimate at a body shop or mechanic and go from there.
