One problem related to trunk lid has been reported for the 2008 Ford Taurus. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2008 Ford Taurus based on all problems reported for the 2008 Taurus.
A right side license plate light burned out. There is a left lamp, also. I noticed it when I walked around the vehicle for a gasoline refill. There is no dash board prompt for this lamp burn out. When I went to replace the lamp a couple days later, I noticed rust spots between a plastic trim piece and the trunk lid. I monitor the license lamps now. I have not had a license lamp burn out until I noticed the rust on the metal panel. I question the coincidence of the lamp burn out and the rust. A possible short.
