Yes, i found the same thing, CVH's seem to get through thermostats for
some reason.
As one stage i was replacing them about once a year.
Genuine Ford of pattern parts, didn't seem to make a difference.

Dear All,
Just replaced my engine coolant thermostat on the 2+2 and noticed the previous one
was only in the car for 16,000 miles. (but 6 years) It just opened at a cooler and
cooler temperature until I felt I needed to change it. Of course the new one is
fine and helps the car warm up much quicker. From my previous experience
thermostats seem to be a short lived item in the Ford CVH engines compared to
others. This was a Q&H one (QTH105K) and replaced with another I already had
on the shelf. I had thought they were an OK brand. On Amazon someone is selling a
‘Ford’ item. If it is genuine Ford, is it your experience they last longer?
On the other hand if you need to replace the thermostat frequently it does push
you to renew the coolant!
