My car is the sport model. I already put in anew thermostat in my car. It was good for two weeks, but now my electric fan is not working. Notification of visit shop is coming up again, car does not overheat but the temperature does go up a little and then back down to 80. if I push the A/C button the fan still does not turn on. Any suggestions please? Thank you.

It sounds like the fan motor is burning out which is common but to be sure lets test of power at the fan motor. Here are two guides to help you get the job done. Test for power at the fan with the engine and AC on.
