Crooked Rear Wiper... Anyone Else ?

My GLS rear wiper seems to be crooked? (i.e. slightly elevated). Anyone else noticed this on their GLS?

If I'm the only one... I'm going to ask my dealer to adjust or replace (still under warranty).

Thanks in advance for humoring my OCD




Happy Motoring!

Yeah, that doesn't look right. It's probably a very simple adjustment, have them do it next time you're in for service (or sooner if it bothers you a lot).

Thanks for the reply. I've added it to my list, for my next service visit later this month. I realize it's a non-life-threatening issue (the crooked wiper, not my OCD), but still hope they can fix it.

FIXED! The dealer tech logged 0.3 hrs warranty time, no parts replaced. Not sure what he did, but it's straight now

So if your 167 wiper is crooked (i.e. doesn't park in a horizontal level position), it's fixable!


Now I just need to wash it...

Calibration for example...... one button

when it's warranty time they use 0.3 hrs

When you pay they need 2 hours

or it"s free with BenzNinja

You need a better dealer, not a coder.🙂
