For most Ford Taurus models, the standard front wiper setup is a 24-inch driver-side blade paired with a 19-inch passenger-side blade, and the rear blade (if equipped) is typically 12 inches.
Wiper blade sizes can vary by year, trim, and regional specification. This article outlines the common sizes and how to verify the exact fit for your Taurus.
Front wiper blade sizes
These are the sizes you’re most likely to encounter on Taurus front wipers. Use this as a baseline, then confirm against your specific model year and trim.
- Driver-side front blade: 24 inches
- Passenger-side front blade: 19 inches
Some older Taurus variants or regional editions may use slightly different lengths, such as 22" on the driver side and 18" on the passenger side. Always verify with your manual or packaging.
Rear wiper blade sizes
Many Taurus models with a rear wiper use a 12-inch blade. Some trims or years may use a different size or omit a rear wiper entirely.
- Rear blade: 12 inches
If your Taurus does not have a rear wiper, no rear blade is required. For those that do, always confirm the measurement for your specific year/model.
How to confirm the exact size for your Taurus
Because wiper blade lengths can differ by year and trim, the most reliable method is to check official sources or measure directly.
Check the owner's manual
Consult the maintenance or wipers section for the recommended blade lengths for your exact year and trim.
Use Ford’s parts finder or retailer listings
Enter your Taurus’ year, make, and model on Ford’s official parts site or a trusted retailer to see the exact blade sizes and compatible mounting styles (J-hook, Bayonet, etc.).
Measure the current blades or take them to the store
If you have the current blades, measure their length along the blade edge. Alternatively, remove the blade and compare with packaging to ensure a proper fit.
Summary
In short, most Ford Taurus models use 24-inch driver-side front blades and 19-inch passenger-side front blades, with a typical 12-inch rear blade where a rear wiper exists. However, there are year- and trim-based variations, so always verify your exact specification via the owner's manual, a parts finder, or direct measurement to ensure you buy the correct sizes and mounting style.
