Fan Blade Snapped!

Just wondering, has anybodies EVO had a fan blade snap? Yeah that is what happend to my EVO, one of the blades on the fan located behind the radiator snaped and punctured the radiator and caused a leak. I took it to two different dealerships and they wouldn't cover it (f*cken a**holes!) cause they keep sayin' a rock must of caused the blade to snap. Kind of sucks cause I planned on being modded and racing this weekend, but got to get this fixed first. I just don't see how a rock could have got through to this fan. Well hopefully not too expensive to fix, putting it on a credit card, also if I need to, I can make a claim with the insurance company, but hopefully it won't come to that.

My fan blade broke on my 2005 RS and the dealer just replaced it no problems at all.

Search here because this is not the first time this has happened for no reason whatsoever.
A rock would not cause this, complain to MMNA.
