Fiesta rear wiper missing area of glass
My fiesta mk6 has the thin metal wiper arm on the rear screen, it misses both the first few inches of coverage, and the last. At rest position the blade isn't making contact with the glass.
Can I tighten, adjust anything? Or is it a case of Bending it and hoping for the best?
Cheers

The pivot joint on the arm will have slight corrosion on it. Spray some wd40 etc on the joint and work the wiper arm away from the glass like when your replacing the blade and back to the glass again. Do this a few times to free it off and it will clear all the glass again. My old mk6.5 ST used to do it all the time.
