Windscreen wiper replacement
Worn-out windscreen wiper blades give poor vision which could lead to an accident. Have you changed your wipers in the last 12 months?
As well as affecting your view of the road ahead, worn windscreen wipers may scratch your windscreen and potentially cause your vehicle to fail its MOT. We therefore recommend that you carry out windscreen wiper replacement at least once a year.
We supply Bosch windscreen wiper blades so if you need new wipers simply pop into your local Autoglass® branch, Remember - when you purchase wipers from Autoglass®, there's no additional charge for fitting.
Alternatively, look out for our windscreen repair teams in a local shopping or retail centre car park near you.
Check your windscreen wipers regularly
Windscreen wipers should be checked regularly and replaced at least annually or more often if you cover a high mileage. For example, a vehicle driven more than 18,000 miles a year should have its windscreen wiper blades replaced every six months.
Defective windscreen wiper blades could result in:
- Your vehicle failing its MOT
- Increased risk of a road accident through poor vision
Signs that your windscreen wipers need replacing
From the moment you get new windscreen wiper blades, road conditions and the environment start to affect them. The rubber will gradually harden with age causing the windscreen wiper blades to screech and judder, chatter or skip. Sometimes, damage to your windscreen such as a windscreen chip can nick the rubber of the blade causing it to leave un-swept bands of water on the windscreen.
