fan keeps making noise

The fan in my MacBook Pro keeps making loud noises. Even when I have just turned it on, and even when I just purchased it. I called the Apple tech department, and was about to take it in, but COVID hit. My computer is about to be 1 year old in a week. What to do?

The issue started about 2 months after purchase. I kept calling and dealing with the phone Customer Tech support who tried different things. However, the problem still persisted. One of the techs said that it is possible that it is cloning the issues that my MacBook Air had since I transferred all from the cloud. By the way, I have a 3 year Apple Care. Because I teach daily, I cannot ship my computer off for repairs.
