Default engine coolant fan running high alll the time

I noticed that my engine fan run running high--loud enough such that I could hear it in the cabin. After I parked, I left the car idling... but the fan failed to shutdown.

my 2001 Saturn's electric radiator fan will run all the time if the pcm detects a problem with the cooling system or electrical system. any trouble codes? probably the same thing with your car...

Hey, I have a similar issue with my 2012 Cruze. When my car has the fans set on defrost or feet/defrost, the engine fan runs on and off every 10-15 seconds or so. WhirrrRRRRRRrrr..... WhirrrRRRRRRrrr... Repeat until fan settings changed. It's not overheating or anything and if I switch the fans to front only or something it stops.

This is a common problem....i surmise that if you had the codes checked, you would get P0597/P0598--has everything to do with chevy switching to a thermal housing instead of a simple thermostat. If you look online for that code you will see a lot of chevy's are having problems with this. I'm currently having this problem and "patiently" waiting for some Chevy Rep to actually contact me. I have to pass a emissions test for my Chevy this month, but I can't pass while experiencing these codes.
