Windshield Wiper De-Icers

[Fozzy]

My wipers aren’t aligned correctly to park under the lines, it sits just above it unfortunately.

As long as they are somewhat close they work. There is so much slop in the wipers. If I run my wipers on a dry window the passenger side will stop in the middle of the plant sticker. After driving it for a while they will work back down to the bottom of the sticker.

In theory the wipers "park" on the defrost lines, but Ford screwed up with their alignment of the wiper travel and resting position. My passenger's side wiper parks above the lines, but the driver's side does park on the lines. I pulled the passenger arm off and put it down one notch on the mounting post and it ended up sitting below the defrost lines. The other issues I've observed is that the passenger blade doesn't quite fully overlap the path of the driver's side wiper at the top of the windshield. I opted to adjust the passenger's side wiper up further to overlap the driver's side wiper path fully but of course this results in it parking above the wiper defrost lines. Seems like a pretty basic thing that Ford screwed up.

I asked the dealer to adjust the passenger side wiper so it parked lower and they said it it was as far as it could go.
