Yes but its more expensive and time consuming. I would have to take it to the body shop then.

Well then just replace the wipper. Since the car is under 5K miles do you thin the dealer should replace it for free.

I could just run down the street to Auto Zone or Parts America. I have both less than a mile away. I wouldn't bother the dealer for a wiper blade.

Since making the original post my wiper started working again. Talked to service and they had no clue.

My wipers also leave a bad streak across the window the first couple of swipes and I also agree about the excess cleaner fluid running down to the bumper.

The weather in Edmonton had been snow then melt, and the roads are very sloppy. Was just gald to have my wiper working again.

Sounds like a "fuse issue." See the Post under "Tips" about the underhood fuse box.

Hope it helps,

Why is that its a fuse's are in a postion that can casue them to be loose for being under the hood. Is the road viberations causing this issue.

It was not a loose fuse problem. Unless it happens again we will never know what caused it.

The dealed decided that the streaking wiper blade is caused by the wiper arm not having enough tension to hold the piper against the glass. Have a new arm on order.

Maybe I should have mine checked out then. I was thinking a bad blade but I could have the same problem with the arm. Thanks!
