Default Rear wiper blade not touching windshield.

I did a search but couldn't find any info to help me so I'll ask and see what happens. My 05 Jimmy came with new wipers blades and the rear one doesn't touch the window when moving. Easy fix for this?

The arm must be fully engaged on the wiper motor shaft. If it is not fully engaged, the arm will not allow the blade to touch the glass. Try lifting the blade off of the glass until it stops, while simultaneously pushing the arm onto the shaft. Or lift the blade and pull the arm off and try to install it again, (the shaft may be corroded, not allowing the arm to fully engage).
