Wiper blades OEM Honda or OEM Volvo
I’ve had my current oem Volvo wipers (bought the car used) for almost 3 years. Through east coast winters too. They still work great. No sounds or streaks at all. 50k+ miles without replacement
Pros: work great, no sounds, no streaks
Vehicle:
Volvo
Mileage: 80467 km
Your new car should absolutely come with OEM wiper blades that allow you to replace the rubber part.
You get the little blade rubber inserts for way dirt cheap, I think it's like 7 or 8 bucks per blade, maybe less depending on the size. It can be a little fiddly to get em in some times, but I think the actual wipers are pretty good quality, so it's worth it to me to keep the oem blades, and get the replacement rubber.
Pros: good quality, dirt cheap
Cons: fiddly to get em in
Vehicle:
Honda
The oem volvo ones are all I've found, I just settled on those for my s90 cuz the guys at auto zone gave up trying everything that claimed it would fit...
Pros: reliable fitment
Vehicle:
Volvo S90
Replaced the blades and nothing changed. Got through one winter of ridiculous streaking and brought the issue up again with the dealer. They replaced both wipers fully under warranty and in rain the streaking is gone.
Pros: streaking is gone
Cons: ridiculous streaking
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
This is the single biggest issue I’ve had with them. It makes driving at night in the rain a hazard. It has always smeared right across the driver’s line of sight.
Cons: biggest issue, driving hazard, smeared line of sight
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
The wipers barely clean and leave a smear. I changed blades and it's the same problem.
Cons: barely clean, leave smear
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
Dealer then replaced them and that worked, then started streaking again. It's just a hassle always returning them or going to the dealer.
Pros: worked initially
Cons: started streaking again, hassle to replace
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
Wipers on a brand new V90 CC 2024 were bad from the dealership.
Cons: bad from dealership
Vehicle:
Volvo V90
New blades makes it better for a little while, but it's not long before the driver's side in particular streaks and doesn't make contact very well.
Pros: better for a while
Cons: streaks, poor contact
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
I have the same year and model of CRV and these wipers absolutely suck. My windshield just cannot get clean with them.
Cons: absolutely suck, windshield not clean
Vehicle:
Honda
