Record by record
8 records state a cause or a remedy. Each record is shown as short labels in the order fault → finding the cause → correction. Press a label to narrow to the records that state it.
A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

Wiper Blade Care Information Bulletin
1Fault
2Finding the cause
Possible causes
- Most wiper performance concerns come from dirty blades, damaged blades, or worn out blades used beyond their useful life.
- Heat and time can give the rubber a permanent set so it no longer flexes and turns over uniformly, which may cause streaking or unwiped areas.
- Ice can form in the pin joints of the wipers and cause streaking and unwiped areas.
- The variation in friction these products leave on the glass makes the wipers chatter and wear prematurely.
Steps to confirm (in the document’s order)
- Inspect the rubber blades every 4-6 months or 12,000 km (7,500 mi) for wear, cracking or contamination.
3Correction
Repair
- If the blades do not clear the glass, clean the windshield and the rubber blades; if that does not correct it, replace the rubber elements.
- Clean the rubber blades with a lint free cloth or paper towel soaked with windshield washer fluid or a mild detergent.
Parts
- For exterior glass cleaning the bulletin suggests Vehicle Care Glass Cleaner, P/N 19287404 (18 oz) or 19259280 (6 oz) (in Canada, 88865156).
