Ford Taurus sho problems
The Ford Taurus SHO (Super High Output) is the high-performance variant of the Ford Taurus. Originally intended as a limited-production model, the SHO would be produced for the first three generations of the model line, from the 1989 to the 1999 model years. After an 11-year hiatus, the model was revived for 2010, continuing through the 2019 discontinuation of the Taurus model line.
In contrast with standard versions of the Taurus, the Taurus SHO was not designed with a Mercury Sable counterpart; however, the 2010-2019 SHO served as the basis for the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan (replacing the long-running Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor). The final version is the only Taurus ever offered with the twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 engine.
The first three generations of the SHO were assembled by Ford at Atlanta Assembly (Hapeville, Georgia); the fourth generation was assembled by Chicago Assembly (Chicago, Illinois).

Common Ford Taurus sho problems
The Ford Taurus SHO is known for its powerful engine and unique trim, making it a desirable choice for many car enthusiasts. However, like any vehicle, it is prone to certain issues that can affect its performance and reliability. Here are some of the most common problems reported by Ford Taurus SHO owners:
- Transmission Failure: Transmission failure is a common problem in the 2003-2005 Ford Taurus SHO, with many drivers reporting that their vehicle can't accelerate or engage in any gear due to a busted transmission. This can be caused by low transmission fluid levels, contaminated fluids, internal wear and tear of transmission parts, and worn clutches. The cost of repair can be expensive, with some drivers reporting bills of over $3000.
In summary, the Ford Taurus SHO is prone to certain issues that can affect its performance and reliability. These include transfer case failure, strut mount bearings wearing out quickly, automatic lights switch failure, oil leaks, blend door actuator failure, white smoke emissions, and transmission failure. While some of these issues are relatively easy and inexpensive to fix, others can be quite costly and may require significant repairs. It's essential to be aware of these common problems and to maintain your vehicle regularly to prevent further damage and ensure its longevity.
How reliable is a Taurus SHO?
The Ford Taurus is a reliable midsize car with a reliability rating of 4.0 out of 5.0 from RepairPal.
How many miles should a Ford Taurus SHO last?
How long do Ford Tauruses last? According to vehiclefreak.com, a typical Ford Taurus will last around 200,000 miles with proper care. Those with less maintenance might last closer to 180,000 miles, so it's best to care for them well if you want your Taurus to make it as long as possible.
Is the Ford Taurus reliable?
The Ford Taurus Reliability Rating is 4.0 out of 5.0, which ranks it 6th out of 12 for fullsize cars. The average annual repair cost is $697 which means it has average ownership costs. The severity and frequency of repairs are lower than other vehicles, so the Taurus is one of the more reliable vehicles on the road.
What is special about Taurus SHO?
The power is transmitted to the front wheels by a Mazda-manufactured five-speed manual transaxle. No automatic is offered. This powertrain makes the Taurus SHO the world's most powerful front-drive car. That's a potential prescription for disaster, because the dynamics of motion are not kind to muscular front-drivers.

- Components: EXTERIOR LIGHTING,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
- Summary: FORD TAURUS 1993 SHO CRUISE CONTROL PRESSURE SWITCH ON BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER BURNED. ON THIS MODEL THIS CIRCUIT SHARES THE SAME FUSE WITH THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS. LUCKILY I NOTICED THE LOSS OF BRAKE LIGHTS RIGHT AWAY AND DISCONNECTED THE BURNED CRUISE CONTROL SWITCH AND REPLACED THE FUSE. DRIVING WITHOUT REAR BRAKE LIGHTS IS A DEFINITE HAZARD. MY VEHICLE IS NOT LISTED IN THE RECALL WITH THE NEARLY 1 MILLION F-150S AND CROWN VICTORIAS BUT I SUSPECT THAT THE SWITCH IS FROM THE SAME VENDOR. FORD HAS AN IMPROVED SWITCH AVAILABLE AND I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE RECALL. THANKS PETER BURBANK
