Ninety percent of all driving decisions are based
on a clear unobstructed view of the road, which means good visibility
is absolutely essential; especially during wet weather when vision may
be obscured by water, road splash, sleet or snow on the windscreen. But
good visibility requires wipers that are in good condition. If the
wipers are chattering, streaking or otherwise failing to wipe cleanly
and consistently, you need new blades.
Cold weather can affect
blade life, too. Freezing temperatures makes rubber hard and brittle,
which increases the tendency to crack and split. The holders can also
become clogged with ice and snow, preventing the holder from
distributing spring tension evenly over the blade. The blade "freezes
up" and leaves streaks as it skips across the glass.
You can
usually replace wiper blades yourself, and can replace just the blade
with a refill or the entire blade assembly. Refills will save you money.
If you're installing a blade assembly, most come with some type of
adapter to fit the arms on your vehicle. The old blades pull or push off
the arm by pressing a release button or pin on the wiper holder.
For
cold weather driving, you might consider installing a set of "winter
blades" on your vehicle. These have an enclosed holder that prevents ice
and snow from building up and interfering with the wiper's ability to
do its job.
If the blades can be pulled away from the glass with
little resistance, it's time for new arms. Most vehicle manufacturers
publish tension specs for their arms. If the arm doesn't meet the spec,
it needs to be replaced.
