Wiper Blades

There are likely a lot of things that come to mind before windshield wiper blades when you think of car safety. Most would think of balding tires, bad brakes, or airbags first and then several other things before they thought of wiper blades being an important part of car safety. However, windshield wipers are one of the most important safety features on your car.

Has there ever been a time when you were on the road and got caught in a downpour with nowhere to pull over to get out of the rain? Have you ever had your view of the road obstructed by a mess on your windshield while driving? If so, you know how vital it is that your windshield wipers are working well and are able to provide a clear and unobstructed view of the road for you. Willis Auto & Diesel Service in Lubbock, Texas, knows how important it is to have good wiper blades. We have a few ways you can make sure your wiper blades are in good shape.

First, maintain your wiper blades. Dirt and leaves can become trapped in your blades and scratch your windshield. Doing a quick wipedown of your blades when they are dirty can save you from costly damage down the road. You should also keep an eye on the weather. In freezing temperatures, your wiper blades can become brittle and hardened, which impairs the way your blades perform. Finally, replace your wiper blades when they are damaged, broken, or not performing well. This is roughly every 6 months to one year. They are a simple replacement, and keeping good wiper blades on your car will help keep you safe and keep rain, snow, and other debris out of your line of vision.
