Windshield Wiper Blades

Windshield wiper blades are necessary for driving in any weather other than sunshine. Rain, snow, and all kinds of debris need to be kept off of the windshield while you're driving to keep your line of vision clear. Your blades should be kept in tip-top condition, as bad blades could leave streaks that obscure your vision, and can make a loud, annoying squeaking noise. It's generally recommended that you replace the blades every six months if they're used regularly, or whenever they begin to show signs of wear. You can check the condition of the blades yourself to see if any of the rubber is coming apart or splitting. This can happen from the blades being exposed to sunlight, which can dry them out and cause them to crack. You also can tell if wiper blades need replacement if they are starting to do a poor job of cleaning your windshield off. They could start to shudder or chatter across the glass, meaning they aren't making proper contact with your windshield. They also might start to streak or smear across the window. Make sure you invest in OEM replacement windshield wipers for your vehicle so they'll fit properly. We sell them here at Parts Discounters.
