Your windshield wiper blades are a small component of your vehicle, but maintaining and replacing the blades are necessary as your vehicle ages. Windshield wiper blades play an important role, though you may not think about them often. They give you the ability to view the road ahead, clearing your windshield of rain, snow and debris.

Having adequate windshield wiper blades keeps you safe on the road. Think back to when you were surprised by a sudden storm or ran out of windshield wiper fluid. If neither of these things have happened to you, count yourself lucky and prepare yourself for the inevitable. Because the windshield wiper blades are located on the outside of your vehicle, they are exposed to the elements all year long. They endure heat and direct sunlight in the summer and last through the sleet, snow and cold in the winter. These guys keep you safe every season, so they’re bound to wear out.

Knowing when to change your windshield wiper blades is important so you aren’t stuck in an unsafe circumstance. Most manufacturers and service technicians advise drivers to change their wiper blades twice a year. This guarantees they will be in top shape year round, and it helps you avoid having worn out wiper blades when you need them the most. Driving your vehicle in areas that has more rain or driving long distances that causes you to use your windshield wipers more frequently can also cause the wiper blades to wear more quickly.

Service departments at most dealerships, like Cardinale Nissan, can check your windshield wiper blades and give you more information about the best options for you.
