when driving home last night I heard what sounded like a low flying helicopter. there was none in the sky...it was coming from the engine of my 2005 dodge caravan sxt. then a few minutes later I heard sounds like a fan breaking or something getting caught in the fan blades and a horrable screech sound. I also heard thumps or thuds like something falling off (all during driving home) I was going different speeds driving on main roads but not the interstate. any idea what this could be? the brake pads and rotors were changed sunday and oil and filter were also changed on sunday.

i would go to a shop and have them check the belt and all the components. it sounds like something belt driven and needs to be looked at asap.
