Finding secondary controls inside the 2008 Taurus is like looking for hay in a haystack. Aside from the auxiliary input jack located inside the front armrest, not one of the Taurus’s controls could be considered hidden. The usual array of power functions are found on the door, with the mirrors controlled by a swivel knob near the A-pillar and a grouping of memory seat buttons next to the door handle. Adjusting the pedals can be accomplished with a button on the left dash, and turning off the traction control or rear park assist system requires a tap of buttons on the instrument panel.
