during last weeks snow storm, my wipers got stuck in a position above where it normally should settle because of the ice imbedded on the window. now that the ice has melted, the wipers do not setttle in the proper position. has this happened to anyone? how do i fix it without going to the dealer

 

The wipers sensed the snow and ice and moved to the Winter driving position, higher up so they would not get buried in the cowl.

Look at your manual on how to move them back down to the normal position. You just push them down firmly. See the description and illustrations on page 135 (of the 06 model) manual.

 

thanks. i thought i tried firmly to place it back with no luck. might not be strong enough

 

Push down closer to the pivot points. Less flexibility is encountered in the arms. It is stiff, but once you push it past the detent or what ever is holding it, it falls into place easily.

 

This happened to me last week. I freaked out. Posted the same question on the site and got help right away. This site is very useful.
