How Often You Should Replace Windshield Wipers

Benefits of Replacing the Windshield Wipers

When it's time to replace your windshield wipes, there are many benefits to take advantage of as you use your car each day. Once new wipers are installed, you can have more clarity as it rains without the water blurring your vision to the outside. Replacing the windshield wipers helps you to avoid damage to your windshield because the materials aren't worn or old. Drivers who don't replace wipers soon enough can have scratches that develop when the metal arms scrape against the glass.

Windshield wipers are also inexpensive to replace compared to other types of work that need to be performed on your car. You likely don't have to budget to have them replaced and can perform this maintenance more frequently.

How Often Should I Replace My Windshield Wipers?

Each manufacturer is different with what they recommend when it comes to how often you need to replace your windshield wipers. Most automakers suggest only leaving the wipers on for six to 12 months to avoid driving unsafely or causing damage to the windshield.

The brand of wipers that are installed is one of the main factors that determine how long they last. If you notice the wiper edge is no longer sharp, it can prevent the wipers from removing all the moisture and will make it hard to see. You may also want to replace the wipers if you notice there's rust present or the rubber material breaking off the blades.
