How often to change: wiper blades
Wiper blades: Every 6–12 months.
Your owner's manual or service booklet gives the interval for your car. Severe use, such as towing, short trips, dusty roads or extreme temperatures, usually means shorter intervals.
Why it matters
Worn blades streak and smear, reducing visibility in rain.
Signs it is due
- Streaks or juddering
- Cracked rubber
