Default Rear Wiper Keeps Getting Stuck

I had the Rear Wiper fixed but after a few uses it got stuck again. It will get stuck in the middle of the window and then eventually in a day or so it will go down. What causes this and is there a more permanent fix?

2000 4dr LS

have you checked to see if the wiper arm is a little loose? sometimes they have to be snugged up but not too tight don't want to snap anything

Mine did that just recently. It would stick and give off a clicking sound(like plastic gears not working together and slipping). I had to replace the rear wiper motor. Works fine now.

Just an FYI. I got mine from the bone yard. A 2000 motor fits a 1998 LS

I tightened the screw and it seems to be working now. I had the rear wiper fixed before, I wonder if they replaced the motor or just the screw.
