Yup, my 12 xlt has it on the d.s. tail light, just not nearly that bad looking... I covered the bared spot with ford touch up paint....
On mine it was only a 1/4" spot thag was rubbing.

Pretty common, but not every truck will have have it, and those that do will have varying degrees of it. Used to see it all the time when I worked at the Ford dealer. I used to repair it whenever I painted a box side. Common on the newer Nissan maximas (or altimas, can't remember which), as well. Repaired a few under warranty.

I resolved this issue this week on mine. Touched up the chipped areas with touch up paint and then cut strips of xpel that I installed on the front half of the taillight opening.

Well my problem area is small (smaller than the OP's), so I was going to use a dremel with a sanding drum (or wedge) attachment and just barely file down that one spot on my tail lamp causing the issue. Should be a quick job since mine should require less than a millimeter getting trimmed off of a half inch span of the lamp corner.
