Taking care of a car feels like a lot of work. With so many moving parts and pieces to maintain, it’s inevitable that something will be forgotten. For many car owners, that something is windshield wiper blades. We almost never notice that they’re dying until after it’s too late. You can overcome this by letting Vern Eide Acura help you manage your windshield wiper blades. Plus, we offer a complimentary multi-point inspection with every service.
Every car owner has replaced windshield wipers at some point. You go to the auto parts store, look up your model and figure out which size is right for your vehicle. It’s a little annoying, but it’s doable. What a lot of car owners don’t realize is that you can just replace the blades instead of the entire blade assembly. That package you purchase that requires you to snap one part off and another on is the entire assembly. The blades are just the rubber part that comes in contact with the windshield. Replacing just this part costs less money than an entire assembly, and it completely restores the wipers’ abilities to clear your windshield. The issue is that blade replacements can be a lot more difficult than assembly replacements. That said, a seasoned pro can swap wiper blades pretty quickly. If you want your wipers in top shape without spending top dollar, consider a blade replacement service.
This leads you to an important question: what is the best route? When it comes to blades and assemblies, you’re pretty much trading money for longevity. Any blade or assembly you can purchase at a verified parts dealer is going to get the job done. The difference between the varying blades is how the rubber is crafted. More expensive blades tend to be made from more durable rubber, and that allows the blade to stand up to weather and adverse conditions longer. Cheaper blades will work just as well, but you should expect to be replacing them sooner. It’s a classic case of more money now or more money later.
