2011 3.7 water pump issue

Hi, I’m reading up on 3.7 NA engines and can’t get the exact info I’m looking for. I’ve read all about the flawed design on the 3.5 and 3.7 l Duratec engines from the Edge where the seal fails and puts water into the oil pan. Because it had a transverse mounted engine that put the water pump under the timing cover.

Does the 2011+ f150 version of this engine have that issue?

No. The F-150 3.7 l engine is longitudinal (like a normal truck engine). It's water pump is up front and easy to get to.
