Stay Completely Safe While Driving?
With all of the emphasis in the automobile industry directed towards getting better gas mileage and leaving less of a carbon footprint out of cars, many safety features of vehicles that should maybe have a larger audience of the general public are being overlooked. One of these such issues is windshield wipers on vehicles.Windshield wipers are often overlooked because they are really an overly easy thing to replace and fix, and so many people simply assume that others will always replace and fix their windshield wipers when they are in need of replacement or fixing. However, there is not enough information out there for the general public to know exactly when a set of windshield wipers need to be replaced or fixed, and this does not affect only the person who needs to get them fixed, but also everybody on the road as well.It only takes one accident for an overlooked portion of a vehicle to cause a very negative situation to occur. All that needs to happen with windshield wipers is a sudden dust cloud or low fog, or heavy rain, which is absolutely possible in many places around the world during any season.What vehicle owners need to know about their windshield wipers is that if their windshield wipers are not working for any reason, they should immediately be replaced that day. Also, drivers should definitely keep their windshield wiper fluid available and full at all times. This is one of the fluids that should be changed or replaced or replenished during a routine oil change and check up of your vehicle. Many automobile workers, even though they are professionals, overlook this as something that is not a serious essay, brake fluid or boil. However, if it is your responsibility to remind them that winter wiper fluid is absolutely just as important as the other fluids in your car, then you must do so.What other people must also have in mind is that in the larger picture, windshield wipers also protect your windshield from cracks and overdue strain from many things that may attack it on the road, such as acid, bird droppings or even hard water.
Why do windshield wipers go on by themselves if replacing the switch did not help?
There is a sensor inside the wiper motor which keeps the wipers running until they reach the "park" position. If that sensor has failed, the wipers will continue to run, seeking the park postition and unable to find it. Wiper motors for American vehicles are often relatively inexpensive and should solve the problem for you.

Its generally accepted that wiper blades should be replaced every 6-12 months. In 2008, Consumer Reports did a wiper blade test. All replacement wipers were very good or excellent out of the package.
