This is the 3rd set of blades and the drivers side of my windshield doesn't get covered. Tried ordinary, silicon and this new rainX latitude, which seems to be the worst of the three.

When I push down gently on the center of the blade as it wipes, it does the job.

Can I strengthen the pressure the blade exerts on the windshield in some way? Can the arm be adjusted?

see my profile, On my Paps truck, we took the arm off of the fluted stud (completely off).......there was a spring at the pivot that we grabbed with needle-nose pliers and removed it.......then we cut off the hook and RE-BENT another hook. Reassemble and WHA-LAH !!

Love, Turddog
