constant cooling fan noise

for some reason sometimes when im driving it sounds like the cooling fan is on everytime i accelerate but i dont even have the a/c on and its not even that hot out and it will stay on pretty much the entire time im driving. but then other times it wont even come on the entire time im driving. also it feels as though i have a little less power when accelerating when this fan noise is goin on. i was just wondering if anyone has any idea why this happens and what i can do to fix it

your fan clutch has gone bad based on your description. not that hard of a repair to do, and should not be too expensive. depending on year and miles it may be covered under warranty. as far as the loss of power, that will always happen when the fan is on, unless you change to an electric fan.
