If your headlights work but you still struggle to see the road, it could be your wiper blades that are having a problem. If they’re not as effective as before or the rubber has worn down to the point that it makes a screeching noise and even scratches the windshield, it is time to get them replaced. If you need other services for your vehicle anyway or want a professional to replace your windshield wipers, then bring your vehicle to the trained professionals at St. Louis Kia Service Center.
There are several signs that your windshield wipers should be switched out for new ones. One of the clearer signs is that it doesn’t remove rain, dirt, dust, or other debris from your windshield as effectively as before, but looking at the wipers could give you an idea of why their efficiency has dropped. If the rubber is peeling from the wiper blade itself, it won’t be able to clear the windshield as efficiently. Bent blades can also be a problem as they won’t make quality contact with the windshield. Having streaks on your windshield is another sign that your wiper blades need to be replaced. If there is a scratching sound or other strange noise that comes from the windshield wipers, it’s a good idea to get them replaced. A good interval to replace the wiper blades is every six months.
Consequences of Not Replacing Wiper Blades:If you delay getting your windshield wiper blades replaced, there could be several consequences. One of the biggest ones is that it won’t remove rain, dirt, or other debris as well or at all, and that will hinder your view of your road. That could cause an accident for you, your passengers, and other drivers on the road. If the wiper blades keep scratching at the windshield, it could eventually damage the windshield, and the cost to repair or replace the windshield will cost more than just getting your wiper blades replaced.
