AC problems

[halfelite]

Since summer is now here I started using the AC more and after running the AC for I would say 30 minutes it starts to put off a smell that is best described as the smell of feet. I live in southern California so we have very little humidity so I dont think it could be a moldy and it only does it after running for awhile anyone have an suggestions? Also does anyone's AC make a slight grinding noise. When im sitting with the AC on and the radio off like in a drive through you almost here a slight scraping sound like a fan would make lightly graze a metal shroud. It sounds like its centered directly behind the AC controls.

What year is your car? This has been an ongoing issue with a lot of us on this forum, that is, the smell. Kim, Ashley, is Ford working on a TSB for this?!

I'm terrified to use my A/C this summer for this very reason.

You can find others with the same problem on this thread http://fordfusionhybridforum.com/topic/5344-cooling-system-stinks-up-car-even-in-winter/

I'm going to close this topic since we already have one discussing this issue. Consolidating topics will make searching easier.
