Rear Wiper System

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Jeep Wrangler and 2015 Jeep Wrangler. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The squeegee of a wiper blade exposed to the elements for a long time tends to lose its wiping effectiveness. Periodic cleaning of the squeegee and the lift glass is suggested to remove any deposits of salt, wax or road film. The wiper blade, arm and lift glass should only be cleaned using a sponge or soft cloth and windshield washer fluid, a mild detergent or a non-abrasive cleaner. If the wiper blade continues to leave streaks, smears, hazing or beading on the glass after cleaning of the squeegee and the glass, clean them again. Wiper blade assembly replacement will NOT resolve hazing or beading.

CAUTION:

Protect the rubber squeegee of the wiper blade from any petroleum-based cleaners, solvents or contaminants. These products can rapidly deteriorate the rubber squeegee.
