What Causes Excessive Wiper Noise?
1 Answers
Reasons for excessive wiper noise: 1. The wiper blade itself may be the issue causing noise. As a rubber product, it can age and harden over time. It's recommended to directly replace with new wiper blades; 2. Foreign objects caught between the wiper blade and windshield may cause abnormal sounds. Owners can inspect and remove any debris from the wiper blades or underneath them to ensure cleanliness; 3. Friction noise from the wiper linkage bushing. With prolonged vehicle use, the wiper linkage mechanism may age, the wiper arm spring elasticity may decrease, and the bushing may wear or even fall off. It's advised to inspect the wiper arm or linkage bushing.
