I live in Ohio and we've been dealing with a lot of snow this winter. I've had my ST for almost 3 months and my driver side wiper hasn't been working 100% since a few days ago. I'm guessing it's from all the snow and rock salt. It seems like it's not touching down to the windshield all the way, it doesn't wipe all the snow/rain off. Has anyone else had any experience with this before? There's not ice on the wiper blade. Should I replace the wiper blade or could it be something with the arm?

I never had this issue with my 2011 Fiesta either. The wiper blades I had on it lasted almost my entire lease. I'm just surprised I'm already having an issue and I've only had this car for 3 months and it's brand new.

Hey...they're only what, 6-10 bucks? Buy a new one...

No they are like $20 a piece. The ones on the Fiesta you can only get through Ford I'm pretty sure. I tried getting Rain X ones from Walmart last year on my 2011 Fiesta and they won't work because it has a specific locking mechanism on it.

Sorry to bump this old thread but has anyone replaced their wipers? My drivers side wiper is horrible after this nasty winter. A few sites say 24" driver and 16" passenger fit out car.

I replaced my driver side wiper because it was so bad I could barely see. I ordered it from http://www.rockauto.com/ because it is cheap on their site. They have a few different brands, but I got motorcraft because that's what the factory blades are.
