You definitely have something wrong. Either the cooling system has a problem or the fan switch is misfunctioning. I live in one of the hotter places in the U.S. and the fan rarely runs at all and when it does, it's only for a minute or so. Even on the hottest days, when I return home, the fan will come on when I park in the garage but the fan has gone off by the time the garage door has closed or shortly thereafter.
