Maintaining a vehicle is important – not just to your safety and enjoyment, but to the life of your vehicle and its future resale value. The team at Pennyrile Ford can help you with some advice on how to keep your car in top shape.

Question: When should I replace my windshield wiper blades?

Answer: Good blades are key to performance and keeping your windshield clear, especially with the rain and snow! Safety is priority!

How do you know if you need new wipers? It’s pretty easy to detect. Do you see streaking on the windshield? Cracks in the rubber? Or hear a chattering sound as a wipe? It’s time for new wipers! Over time, the sun dries out the rubber, which creates splits and cracks. And icy windshields can tear the wiper blades. Be sure to completely thaw the ice before you turn the wipers on to prevent damage.

Replacing wipers is no-appointment-necessary. Also, our New Mobile Service can come to you!
