The fix was two new decent blades. Anco worked great for me. $26 from Amazon and it's done.
I personally have Bosch ##CA blades (## = inches), and they've been working well for me so far.
The wiper blades that came on my car (used) looked a lot like the Bosch A582S AeroTwin set available from many sellers on eBay. Just bought a new set myself, waiting for delivery. Between then and now, I've used Rain-X wipers. An older style didn't fit properly but the Latitude does work and fits properly, though doesn't look as nice as the Bosch set which is actually relatively inexpensive. I would recommend finding the A582S set.
I've got the Anco blades as well and have driven through some pretty nasty south Florida weather. Haven't had any complaints or issues with the wipers at any speed.
So I stopped at the closest auto zone and got some Bosch Icon blades I think they were. Easily the best set of blades I've ever owned. So far they have gone through three snow storms and I don't have a complaint yet.
My Jetta has Bosch Evolutions which are only starting to streak after almost 4 years.
I have had mine on my Ranger for my 3rd winter in Maine. Great blade.
Anco C-24-N: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HQZ92UQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Anco C-19-N: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HQZAYC6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 These are the ones I bought for my '14 GLI and they both clipped in exactly like the OEM ones. Took me 10 seconds to install them. Easiest blades I've ever installed on a car!
I switched to the Bosh Icon. they were more expensive, but I haven't had to change then in two years and they are still going strong.
mine does it too, and ICONs are NOT crap, they are very good (usually) I think the new ones are crap, however. my dad has an 06 VE Jetta with original wipers and they work better than my new ones.
