My 2016 GTPP has had a ticking noise for over a year, I went back and forth with Ford a few times trying to get them to diagnose the issue but no one would dig into it. Finally got a good service advisor that agreed there was a problem. First they replaced the exhaust manifold but the issue persisted. Then they replaced the cam phaser and that resolved it. My car is running better than ever and that annoying sound is no longer drowning out my exhaust at idle. My only concern now is if there is any long term damage caused by this...not sure.
I've heard these phasers are a big issue with 2018+ but I couldn't find much for my model year. Anyway, if you have a similar sound make sure you have them check this out.
