Problem with rear wiper
Hi All-
I have been noticing an issue with the rear wiper. THe motor is fine and all, but the wiper does not wipe the lower 1/3 of its arc. In fact it visibly lifts over that portion. I do not have another example of a rear wiper to determine whether its bent or not, and can't for the life of me determine how it got this way (save for someone messing with it in the parking lot or whatever). I suspect its bent, but again no way to determine that. It looks okay, and sweeps back and forth fine- but it has the lower portion of the blade lifted once it gets about halfway across the window.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Jon

I would bet that you are correct. Something is bent out of shape . I would be bent out of shape if I saw someone do this to my car.Know anyone with another 964 that you can swap wipers with briefly for a test?
