Broken Wiper? WTF? pics and details inside....

SO i wake up in the morning
sit in my car... it's like 10degrees outside...
I give the car good 15 mins to warm up
and then sit in and put the wipers on.. barely
any ice there.. and the thing got stock...
Pics takes like 5 hrs later though, no ice anymore..

that's your car saying "wash me, or things are about to go down"

the wiper is just the beginning.

If they still move, its easy to fix...more

There is a splined shaft that can come loose or strip. Hopefully, it came loose, you can loosen the nut, lift the arm and relocate the arm to the desired position and tighten the nut it should be ok. Good luck.
