2006 Pontiac Vibe was going in city look down to see my car was over heating pulled over to side of road to look under hood found that the cooling fan had fallen off. And the fan fuse was blown my car is only 5yrs old the has to be a defect my machine told my the baring or bushing were gone in the motor. If I didn't happen to notice the problem I would have blown the engine I am also wondering if this is part of the recall for the cooling problem that has to do with sensors.
