Not at this writing. However I only have around 3000 miles on it.

Just had my OB water pump replaced under warranty after just 31,000 miles. Took about two weeks for the parts to arrive.

Took to heart someone's idea here on the forum. I'm keeping a spare water pump, gasket and serpentine belt in the trunk.

I had mine checked while I was out of town. Since October I have used an entire jug of coolant. Unfortunately they told me they could not find any evidence of a leak, though I know it is there. I will just have to continue to monitor it and see if it becomes worse.

Did they perform a pressure test?

Yes they did, but I know the leak was fairly slow as well
I noticed I was losing coolant around 19,000 miles on my '23 OBX. Took it into local body shop and they did pressure test and determined that the water pump itself had a small weeping so it was just a slow leak that probably evaporated once it hit bottom surface (or floor). Just had my pump replaced last week at Ford shop.

Small update for me. Had an oil change yesterday and they told me I have a coolant leak. ?‍♂. Which I had told them before.
least the water pump is getting changed next week now.
but I don’t understand why it failed the pressure test now and not a few weeks ago.
