Our cooling fan did the same thing. Sounded like a small plane taking off. Last winter when having a deer hit repaired, the body shop said that they had repaired a piece of the cardboard "surround" near the cooling fan that clearly had been sucked into the fan. Since I did't do it, I can't describe the repair but it can't be difficult.
