Default RE: Rear Wiper Problem

Do you still have the stock ramp which pulls the wiper arm away from the tailgate? If not, then that would likely be the cause. If you do, someone may have bent the arm in hopes of getting better pressure on the blade. These wiper arms like to corrode at the pivot point limiting the blade pressure on the glass. The first thought of many people is to bend the arm to get better pressure, however, this often results in the blade getting caught.
