I would think they would have another 05 ford with the same motor on the lot. Ask them to hear it run and compair it to yours. I assume you will have to ask them to fix yours or make the other one chirp.:-)

Run it momentarily with the belt off. If there is no chirping, then your problem is in somewhere in the belt drive system. Dealer should be able to do this in 10 minutes.
