What to Do When Car Wipers Don't Clean the Windshield Properly?

[TeaganAnn]

If you notice that the wipers are not cleaning the windshield properly, it is mostly due to improper maintenance, which causes the rubber blades to become rough. Another possible reason is that the rubber blades have hardened due to aging. The solution is to smooth out the rough rubber blades. Specific method: When you find that the wipers are not cleaning the windshield effectively, consider how long it has been since you last replaced the windshield washer fluid. Windshield washer fluid has an expiration date, which can usually be found on its label—typically around 2-3 years. Using expired washer fluid for an extended period not only makes the wipers less effective, reducing driver visibility, but can also lead to noticeable scratches on the windshield, posing safety risks. Therefore, regularly replacing the windshield washer fluid is essential.
