Something along the serpentine belt routing may be out of alignment. Have you had any work done on your A/C recently or replaced your power steering pump or alternator? If you have, check to be sure the pulleys all line up correctly.

It could also be that your belt tensioner is worn out. Too much play in the tensioner pulley could be the cause.

Are you buying these belts from a Ford dealer or your local auto parts store? I would go to a Ford dealer to be sure you are getting the correct belt. The belts have a different number of ribs, depending on your make and model. Some had five ribs, some have ten (and so on). It will make a difference if you put on the incorrect belt for your specific vehicle.
