Good morning everyone,
I have a question regarding the rear wiper bar/blade. A few months ago I went through the car wash and it knocked off the plastic pice that covers the rear wiper arm mounting nut. Since the arm itself had been faded from the sun, I just ordered an entire new arm assembly. When it came in, I changed out the arm assembly (one single nut) and since then the new arm/wiper blade is not making full contact with the glass when it is raining. The wiper blade contacts the lower portion of the glass, but leaves the top portion untouched. As you may imagine, this affects rear visibility since the entire glass is not cleared with each swipe of the blade. To troubleshoot, I have loosened the nut, tightened the nut, and changed out the wiper blade. Any other thoughts or people who have experienced something similar?
Kind regards,
Jason
