Acer Aspire 7 (A715-72G) fan making rattling noise

Peter2020

Hello!

I have noticed that my beloved acer notebook started to make some rattling noise, first I tought that it was the laptop cooler underneath the laptop but, unfortunately it wasn't the rattling noise comes from the fan, it is not a serious it is more like a light noise, like if the fan is touching something lightly, and hitting it as the fan turns on.
There is not a single scratch on my laptop, it hasn't been dropped and only transported in a secure laptop bag.

Do someone have a suggestion to what shall I do to make it stop, or it is reasonable to contact acer and get it repaired?

Thank you for your answers!

@Peter2020 May be there is no problem.
Sound may be hear when you put your ear on laptop.Fan create noise when fan speed is slow.
If sound is high then it will be problem

Thank you for your answer, so it is not a problem if i only hear it when I put ear on my laptop, or i hear it when it is complete silence?

@Peter2020 yes ,right
I can understand because i also faced this/scared when i buy nitro 5 6months ago but i find out this is normal.
All type of fans make some noise in slow speed

Thank you very very much!
I was really scared that my laptop would die or get seriously damaged becouse, I don't know the lack of cooling or something. I didn't know that unfortunately, becouse I haven't owned an acer before and my old asus laptop had a fully closed houseing with very little opening where the sound of the fan did't come out!

Thank you very much!
Best regards!

As long as the cooling performance isn't affected a rattling fan is merely a nuisance.
I replaced my fan after 2 years of use due to the same issue, cost me $2.97 for a replacement fan
