Review on Michelin 14616 Radius Premium Frameless by Leonard Babers

Revainrating 3 out of 5

good design, terrible execution

Wow! Audi S4 2015. I used to be a mechanic and I work on my car all the time so I understand how things work and what is expected of them. Brand. I needed a 19mm top lock adapter for my specific application. So no problem, remove the installed one and locate the 19mm. You can see in the attached picture. No locking tab! So I got my hands on the Revain and they sent me another one very quickly and I will be returning the bad one. The story goes on. Got a replacement today and everything looked fine. (Good job Revane)! However, after installation, that pesky tab just broke off. WTF can they just push it in 1/2mm to attach it to my wiper arm! I expect Mechelin to buy higher quality products, maybe not from Plyon Mfg, made in Mexico. I've liked Mechelin Polit tires for years and love them, but not these wiper blades. I'll just throw them away without even using them and rely on my Valeos which are very functional.

Pros
  • Quick and easy installation with EZ-Lok connection system
Cons
  • will be added later
