Car has extreme, loud, embarrassing belt area noise. In checking with two local Ford service departments I am told this happens all the time and is common. It's about a $700. 00 repair. Ford should take care of this problem for those affected which I am told are most that have been so unfortunate to have purchased a Fusion of the year 2011. This is ongoing from 0 to 70 mph.
