Has anyone had an issue with the A/C fan making noise? I have a 2020 Niro EX i leased a couple of months ago. The issue began during my first real road trip with it. It sounds like it is rubbing something on each revolution. While it is noticeable in the cabin, it is quite loud outside the car. The noise stops when the A/C is turned off - even if the fan that moves air into the cabin is on. There doesn't appear to be any foreign object in the area. It's under warranty and could just take it in but as the dealership isn't very close, it would be nice if I could take care of it myself. If anyone has had this issue, please let me know what the fix was. Thanks
Mine does not do this. I just checked and the condenser fan is visible from the 'engine' compartment. With car off give it a little spin and see if the fan itself is making noise. The AC compressor makes a buzzing kind of noise that if it got louder could be similar to your description
