Windshield wipers suck

Anyone else having an issue with their wipers? Mine leave a haze, mentioned in other threads. But mine are also super streaky leaving multiple little lines of water after they wipe. I’ve cleaned them and the windshield and still have this annoying problem. The wipers in my 2013 were perfect and the blades always lasted more than a year, even here in NC with our crazy hot summers. Anyone else with this and is there a solve? I’m going to run by the dealer tomorrow, I’m that annoyed.

JUst drove mine through rain and some wet snow - no streaking. Your wipers or glass could have been contaminated with something, like some lubricant or adhesive. Try cleaning both very very well with strong cleaner (Windex with ammonia) and if that does not help, get new wipers, ideally free from the dealer, because streaking is not normal.

There is graphite on the blade edges and it's rather fragile - if you lift the arm off the glass to wipe the arm or for any reason be cautious of touching the blade edge.

Mine are fine as well.
