Whenever we turn on the A/C the vehicle starts vibrating in the front engine and makes a loud noise. The radiator fans would start to vibrate like crazy and then after a while they would calm down again. I took a look and noticed one of the fans was broken, but I was not sure if that would cause all the vibrations and noise. The engine mounts, transmission mounts, and serpentine belts were recently replaced.
