Take a look at the belt! It would not hurt to install a new one.
Ok, the belt is actually fairly new. I was wondering if they stretch out at all after a bit of use, & then need to be tightened maybe? I talked to a guy who said it might be the fan in the back inside the "shroud"?.
I would look at the whole fan system.

You will have to judge that. If the belt breaks, stop the car.

It is a fan belt but it is different from other cars.
