One of my wiper blades is fading in color as the black is becoming discolored. I am going to try to get this replaced and covered under warranty because I do not believe that the color should fade. If it cannot be covered, about how much does it cost to replace one wiper blade attachment? It is the end part that is fading and I believe it can be removed and replaced rather than having the entire thing ( the part that actually attaches to the car) taken off. So about how much would it cost? Also do you think it will be covered by warranty?

I picture would help clarify but it's worth a try to get it replaced for free.

I do not have a picture however it is the part at the end of the wiper blade that I believe attaches to another part (this other part is actually attached to the car.) If you know what I am speaking of, do you know what the cost is if it is not covered? If you can only answer with a picture please inform me of this. I could likely figure out how to get a picture online (though I am not 100% sure.) So do you know the cost or do you need a picture? Thank you!

Parts of wipers are the attaching ARM and the blade assembly including changable rubber blade. The assembly with blade or the blade alone are easily replacable. There are aftermarket parts to fit just like original. (Design may vary) you can go to auto store and ask for help with it. Not very expensive.
