Very little modification required

Works like factory but I had to bend the end of the part that attaches it to the motor because it didn't let the wiper touch the glass. Bend quickly with pliers and it works great.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Not for Mazda Tribute 2006

Unfortunately this arm is about 2.5 cm shorter than the original arm, but the quality seems to be good. to the right of the wiper shaft. If I hadn't thrown away the packaging it would have been returned, lesson learned for $28.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Have a cheap Chinese brand if the title says it's Dorman.

I ordered this item because the title says it is a Dorman brand. I got a cheap Chinese generic which most likely isn't worth the price I paid. I could just go to my local auto parts store and pay the same price for a good Dorman. Also, no nut is included. fraud by the seller.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Nothing

High quality, good value product.

I had an issue with the first batch (no product) that prevented me from receiving it. I spoke to customer service and they were very understanding and offered to send a replacement free of charge. I really appreciated that as it was something they probably didn't have to do. All in all it was a great product. For a couple of years my rear wiper hasn't wiped more than a 3 inch strip. I switched brushes several times and finally decided to try the lever instead. It worked like a charm and was…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Can't remember

It is better to slightly bend the wiper arm.

My 2003 Escape rear wiper did not clean the glass evenly which is common with more or less vertical rear windows/wipers. This device performed absolutely no better than the existing device, which unfortunately has to be removed. I ended up having to flex the lever a bit to ensure full contact with the glass throughout the wiper stroke. I should have tried that before with the existing wiper arm. TIP: If you need to remove the old wiper arm, use a hacksaw blade to make a cut or two in the arm…

Pros
  • Beautifully packaged
Cons
  • Quality
