Noisey freezer fan - GE Hotpoint Top-Freezer Refrigerator

Call out the warranty supplier. Where is the noise coming from? If no warranty, check the electrics to the compressor and fan. sometimes the noise is the fan. Also switch off overnight and leave doors open. When restarting, if the noise has gone it will have been the internal fan hitting on ice buildup.

Remove the back panel in the freezer to see if you have ice buildup on the coils. Post back your results.
