Windshield Wiper Arms

Windshield wiper arms are parts that move back and forth across your VW's windshield. They have wiper blades attached to them and are synced to a motor. When the motor is engaged, the windshield wiper arms move the blades back and forth to either clean or wipe away the debris on the windshield to give you improved visibility. The wiper arms on your vehicle are parts that can become worn out quickly compared to others. You can do a visual inspection of the windshield wiper arms on a regular basis to see if they have become cracked or damaged. The wiper arms might have become bent upward, which can result in the wipers not being able to make proper contact with the windshield. Another sign of something being wrong with the wiper arms are issues getting them to move when you try to turn them on. This can be an issue with the wiper motor, but the wiper arm might have become loose on the attachment as well. You can also inspect the wiper arms to see if they are cracked or bent. Sometimes, paint might start to flake off the arms and expose the metal underneath. You can find replacement VW windshield wiper arms here at Volkswagen Parts Counter.
