2011 Tahoe Passenger Wiper Blade Doesn't Contour

[fyathyrio8]

I don't mean to be picky... but... has anyone else had a tough time finding a replacement wiper blade that makes contact with the windshield the whole length of the blade? The outermost 3" or so doesn't follow the contour of the windshield. I have tried Bosch Icons, Tricons, and Duralast... no dice.

The best option was the value brand crap - which reduces the non-contact area to about 2"... but... is the worst quality wiper I've ever seen.

For the ones that I have seen, the last 3" of the passenger side wiper blade does not make contact with the windshield due to the contour of the windshield in the lower corner there. It eventually does after it comes up a bit from the lower corner.

I can't imagine you would be able to find a blade that can apply enough pressure at the outer extremity there to make the contact, but if you do, let us know.

07 same thing. Haven't bothered to try relocate the arm a bit higher.
Only positive, it doesn't freeze to the windshield here in the north!
