Default First problem... wiper failure...3,600 miles.

The passenger blade was frozen to the glass when I activated the wipers. Driver's blade took-off fine while the passenger arm stayed put. I think the teeth are stripped on the soft metal of the wiper arm.

Perhaps, it would be wise to be sure your blades are free b/4 you hit the switch like I did.

Default Yep! Splines in wiper arm are stripped. New part here by Monday.

I drove over to the service department this morning, unanounced. Tech pulled it in the barn and gave me a temporary fix on the spot. The whole thing cost me 15 minutes of time. Never had that kind of service b/4!
