anyone had this happen to them? Just wondering mine is a 2011 5.0 but do not hear the ticking or knocking described by all the Ford truck message boards.
Here is a site that discusses the issue.

People go to message boards to bitch. Not saying that this problem does not exist, but the Internet makes it appear that everyone has the same issue. In reality, less than 1% of trucks sold (doesn't matter brand) will exhibit the issues found online.

Thanks for posting this. Now I'm really wondering if I made a mistake buying my F150 last month. I have the 5.0.
I read thru those posts. That makes me nervous.

We use to see this. Valve would either be stuck or dropped. Only thing you can do is replace the head.

I have an '11 w 95k mi and love it. Only prob ive ever had is if I let it sit for a day or so, on initial crank, the entire truck will shake for 3-4 seconds then it will quit. Makes me think the fuel pump might be losing its prime from sitting there. I will buy another f150 after this one.

My '12 5.0 has 104,000. Never been to dealer since drove of the lot with 2 miles. Thing has been a rock.
