well....about your brakes...I'd take it back to Ford and let them know that they didnt fix the problem and either you'd like your $$ back or have them actually fix the problem you came in for.
dunno about your belt other than make sure it isnt on too tight or too loose.

are you sure it's the belt squeaking and not a pulley? I just replaced the entire AC compressor on my taurus to fix a similar issue. The compressor was toast but it sounded just like a belt squeak. Check the tensioner and belt tension and spin each pully by hand and listen for a squeak.
Other than that... zigzagg has it right. Take it back and tell em it's not right.

I would suspect your brake booster went out. Thats exactly what happened on my first car. Pedal would go to the floor no matter what.
I know what your talking about with the serpentine belt. In my auto, at full throttle shifts going into second, the belt would slip and squeal momentarily. Moreso when it was cold out.
All you need to do is go get a goodyear gatorback belt. Autozone sells em for $25 I think. Itll take car of that.
