What is the size of the wiper blades for the tenth-generation Accord?
2 Answers
The wiper blade sizes for the tenth-generation Accord are 26 inches and 19 inches. The wiper is a blade structure installed in front of the windshield, consisting of components such as an electric motor, reducer, four-bar linkage, wiper arm spindle, and wiper blade assembly. Its primary function is to clear rain, snow, and dust from the windshield that obstruct the driver's view, thereby improving visibility and enhancing driving safety. The tenth-generation Accord is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, paired with a CVT transmission. The vehicle's dimensions are 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2830mm.
I've been driving a 10th-generation Accord for several years and am very familiar with the wiper sizes. The driver's side wiper blade is 16 inches, while the passenger side is 14 inches. These sizes are specifically designed for the curvature of the Accord's windshield to ensure full water coverage. During the rainy season, good wipers help maintain clear visibility and reduce the risk of accidents in wet conditions. I recommend checking them every six months or 10,000 kilometers. If you notice hardened rubber, cracks, or water streaks after wiping, it's time for a replacement. Replacing them is simple—just buy a matching size from an auto parts store, such as Bosch, for around 100 yuan. It takes just a few minutes to do it yourself, but the size must be accurate. If the wiper is too large, it might hit the frame; if it's too small, it won't cover enough area, which can be dangerous. Additionally, regular maintenance like cleaning windshield dirt can extend the wipers' lifespan and improve driving safety.
