Driver side wiper doesn't function properly. 1st day came up half way, now it gets stuck by the passenger side wiper blade. Appears that the piece (name?) that is connecting the wiper is broken. Looking for an approximation of cost of repair to avoid getting ripped off. Is it possible that it is a motor problem? Not sure since one wiper is working just fine? Any advice appreciated.

Hi there,

Check that the nut at the base of the wiper arm is tight, make sure that the wiper is parked at the bottom of the screen before tightening, if this is already tight, the regulator is faulty and will need to be replaced. get a few quotes before committing yourself first.
