No not at all. I would say since the 3.5 Ecoboost engine debuted in 2011 F150’s that there is an overwhelming majority without cam phaser issues.

You are probably right but every time I pull a carfax on a used expedition from 2017 and newer it looks like they all have had cam-phaser work done at the dealer.

Cam phasers are only an "issue" on the 4th gen trucks. Third gens didn't have that problem.

I actually had the cam phasers repaired on my 2015 but no problems so far on my 2020 (20,000 miles) and now my 2021 (21,000 miles).

I had a '13 F150 that had no problems. Son in law also had a '13 F150 with no problems. I now have a '21 Expedition with no problems so I think a great poetion of them on the road have had no problems.
