Wiper Blade Replacement
Windshield wiper blades should be
inspected for wear and cracking.
See Scheduled Maintenance on
page 112 for more information.
Replacement blades come in
different types and are removed
in different ways. For the proper
type and length, see Maintenance
Replacement Parts on page 118.
It is a good idea to clean or replace
the wiper blade assembly every
six months. Allowing the wiper
blade arm to touch the windshield
when no wiper blade is installed
could damage the windshield. Any
damage that occurs would not be
covered by the vehicle's warranty.
Do not allow the wiper blade arm
to touch the windshield.
To remove the wiper blade
assembly:
1. Open the hood to gain access to
the windshield wipers.
2. Lift the wiper arm away from the
windshield.

assembly.
