Change wiper blades every six to nine months
Wiper blades after a half year or more, except the RainX Latitude brand, were reported by Consumer Reports to be not nearly as effective. More streaking, smearing or even missed areas of the windshield became more common over time. Consumer Reports also did a 185-car sample where it was found that most people do not replace their wiper blades after they have degraded to being unsafe for driving. The owner’s simply hadn’t noticed; more likely, they’d become accustomed to poor driving visibility.
Just get some working wiper blades
