when the rear wiper is in use and after it does the "wipe" then returns to its normal position, it kinda bounces back up the glass...happens when i flip the switch on and off to get a one-time quick wipe, falls back down to its "resting" spot then bounces sometimes just a little up and other times bounces almost to an upright position..any ideas?

 

Silly question, but is it the right size? At Canadian Tire I was told it is an exact fitment number for the hhr. Not just any wiper that length will do.

 

haha ya i used to work at CT so i know how the system is sometimes wrong so i brought the actual wiper to the store with me and sized it up..so i do have the right one

 

For what it is worth, skyline, I just tried mine and it doesn't do it.

 

Sounds like the wiper motor is going bad. The "park" position may not be engaging correctly. The wiper motor I believe is a non servicible unit. Have to replace the entire motor.


Hmmmmm. Any chance that the wiper arm is stripped or loose on the wiper motor shaft??? If so, then forget the 1st part of my post.

 

My old 2008 and my new 2011 both sometimes don't park all the way down.

 

Mine sometimes bounces up an inch or so from the full down position. I just hit the switch again, maybe a couple times, until on that swipe it rests all the way down.

I've never had mine bounce up more than an inch.

 

ya sometimes it bounces almost half way up the glass, have to hit the switch a couple times for it to sit properly

 

that should be covered under warranty, ill bring it in next time im there and tell them about the motor since the arm isnt loose

 

? I don't think that will fall under the powertrain warranty. And you won't have a B-B warranty left.
