Default SOLVED- Radiator Fan Squeaking after car is turned off

I noticed that my radiator fan was squeaking a little after the car was turned off. This is usually a bad sign. I went ahead and ordered a TYC 321070 Radiator Fan and replaced it today. Sure enough, when I pulled the old fan, it actually had a metal ball bearing from inside that was stuck on the outside of the fan indicating failure! Also, after I shut the car off, the new fan spins freely MUCH longer, which shows it doesn't have any friction inside. Hope this helps someone. Pay attention to those noises in the engine bay!
