Has been happening ever since I got the car, but I wanted to know if it's anything to be worried about. Every time I stop, I can hear the fans come on. I'm assuming that they turn on while I'm driving because every time I stop at any point, I can just hear them start up again. Is this anything to be worried about? The engine temperature is normal and it is 37 degrees outside, so I don't really understand why the fans would be coming on in the first place. There's obviously plenty of cold air to cool the radiator.
2010 Outlook Fans Coming On When Stopped?

Are you using the defroster? The fans should come on when the A/C compressor is on. The A/C compressor is on for defrosting. Maybe the fans come on for defrost mode, but they aren't needed during motion, only idling.
Try other indoor climate modes, floor, vent, even OFF and see if the fans come on when you stop.
