You work hard to make sure your vehicle is always in proper operating condition. But when was the last time you checked your windshield wiper blades? The California sun is notorious for degrading the material they are made from, which can create a huge issue the next time you need to use them. Here are a few things you need to know about having your windshield wiper blades changed at our certified service department at Mossy Volkswagen.
Although we don't see too much rain in Southern California, it is still incredibly important to have your windshield wiper blades changed periodically. Why? The old wiper blades can start to degrade over time, making it difficult to deflect water when a sudden storm arrives. Furthermore, the plastic clips that hold them securely in place can start to wear over time. Instead of putting yourself in a dangerous situation, make sure you are prepared ahead of time with new wiper blades from Mossy Volkswagen. And don't forget any rear window wiper blades, too!
The easiest way to tell that there's a problem with your old wiper blades is to simply try to use them. If they make an audible squeak or don't seem to remove water as well as they used to, it might be a good idea to schedule a replacement. Also, look for any odd movement or looseness after you turn them on. No rain in the forecast? Try using the window washer feature on your vehicle or simply grab a water hose to test them out.
While it is certainly easy to stop by a local parts store to pick up windshield wiper blades, we strongly advise against this. Why? Finding the right size for your particular Volkswagen model can be difficult if you aren't familiar with the various years and wiper blade designs. By working with our team, you can rest assured that the right size and style for your individual vehicle is selected, because we have genuine OEM parts. Furthermore, we'll install them for you so that you know they are secure and ready to use.
