    My passenger side wiper has never fully cleared the windshield towards the upper third of the wiper blade, even when brand new. I notice it most when I need to clear dirty road spray off the windshield. Driver's side works as it should.

    I just pulled the wipers off, and I can't find any visible wear, or reason for the faulty performance of the passenger side. The original inserts appear to still be in great shape. I was hoping new inserts would make a difference, but now I'm not sure.

    Any ideas why my passenger side wiper has never functioned properly?

    I might have figured out why my passenger side wiper has always been faulty.

    Upon closer inspection, I found a slight bend in the wiper body. I bent it back the best I could, then replaced the insert. Hopefully that fixes it. If not I'll replace the entire wiper blade.

    Is it just me, or do the OEM wipers seems extremely flimsy compared to other wiper blades?

    Not just you, I agree…
    While snow brushing off the windshield I must have gotten the brush behind the wiper and bent it enough that it would leave a streak in the middle.
    I tried to adjust it back but no go with that.
    So, I just moved it to the passenger side and let my wife enjoy it.

    Just replace the entire blade which comes with a new insert. It's the same price ($25) as a Bosch wiper blade

    Is it pretty obvious how to swap out the inserts? They look like one solid piece?
