Having a clear view of what lies ahead on the road is imperative to keep you and your family safe in your car. Windshield wipers that leave streaks only hinder this goal. That’s why it’s important to fix windshield wiper problems before you risk losing road visibility. Our dealership cares about your safety, so we came up with a few tips to help you keep your wipers working well.
Worn Out Wipers
Whether you’re driving a new or used car, at some point, you’ll need to replace your windshield wipers. Wiper blades are made of rubber, which deteriorates when the material is exposed to the hot sun and other weather elements. These worn wipers leave streaks on your car’s windshield because they are not contacting the glass properly. Additionally, dirt left behind on your wipers after it rains will leave a greasy mess on your windshield, making it also very hard to see the road.
So what can you do about this? Simple, keep your wipers well-maintained. For starters, just take some soap and water and clean the blades. If that doesn’t work, then it’s probably time for a new pair. In fact, we recommend changing your wipers at least once a year. Just ask our service team and they’ll be happy to help you get a great pair of wipers at a great price, and they'll install them on your car in no time.
Windshield Glass Deformities
Texas driving can be rough on your car’s windshield. Flying rocks, bugs and other unwanted items often make their way to your windshield. So all the blame can’t fall solely on defective or dirty wipers. First try giving your windshield a good clean with a high-quality cleaner. If that doesn’t work, your windshield probably needs to be replaced. Our dealership has a dedicated glass professional, who will help you get the best windshield for the best price possible.
