When Should You Replace Your Wipers?
A vehicle’s windshield wipers should be replaced once a year, but that doesn’t mean they can’t become damaged sooner. Regularly inspecting your wipers and knowing what bad wipers look like can help keep you safe in wet conditions. There are a few common signs you can look out for that indicate bad or damaged wipers. These signs include:
- Squeaking Sound: A squeaking sound coming from your wipers as they pass can mean there is damage to the wiper blade.
- Water Spots: Water spots left over after the wipers pass would mean there is a tear in the rubber of the blade.
- Wet Streaks: Windshield wipers should leave the windshield streak-free. Streaks could mean the blade is worn.
- Vibrations: Jerking or vibrations from the wipers could be a sign that the joint of the wiper is not properly connected.
Properly working windshield wipers can help keep you safe in wet or snowy conditions. Having a clear view of the Norman roads is crucial to the safety of your passengers and the drivers around you.
How Long Do Windshield Wipers Last?
Many factors come into play that can affect the lifespan of your vehicle’s windshield wipers. These factors can cause your wipers to wear down faster, causing replacement to happen more often. Some factors may include:
- Vehicle Storage: Where your Subaru is parked and whether it stays covered plays a part in the effectiveness of your wipers. Cars that stay covered require less wiper maintenance.
- The Environment: Weather conditions in your area can strongly affect windshield wipers. Areas that get more sun and less rain are especially hard on wipers, causing them to crack.
- Usage: How often you use your windshield wipers determines how often they need to be replaced. The more you use them the more often they should be changed.
