The system is getting hot for whatever reason. Try bleeding your coolant incase there is a bubble and causing the temps to rise higher than normal

If you trust your dealer more than yourself, yes.

Is your A/C on? I know it's not cold but the auto climate uses the A/C to remove humidity too. That will also turn on the fan.

That doesn't sound like something you should worry about.
