I got it for a 2004 PT Cruiser rear window. It seems like the blade loses contact with the window in the top inch of the arc. Is it normal?

Yeah mine seems to be about 1/2in. the same way. Not sure if that is normal though.

No. I think they are made for the contour of a windshield. Mine work fine on the windshield of my Durango.

Leonard, I have a small amount of trouble on the driver side door. The only reason I have trouble is because I have a 1982 Yahama. Most of the Yahama's windshields are slanted back, which slightly poses a good fit. This is my second one only because I found out that one should not trailer these with the zippers closed up. I really like it because I can clearly see out the front window and stays warm inside when my heater is on.

I am in the same dilemma...I took off the beater bar, but the motor shaft goes all the way to the other side, and there is no gap to take the belt on or off...help!

make certain the front top part is correctly fitted when closed... then tap the windowto see if the window will swing in arch.... the fit of the top section is crucial (in myexperience)..... good luck

The cable connecting throttle to blade engagement bar is too loose. Try to pull it with your hand when engine is on. If blades start spinning - that's the problem. To fix that adjust cable length on the perforated braket under rubber cover located on the cable.Hope that helps...

I haven't experienced that problem with this cutter, but with my old Fiskars cutter, that would happen when the cutting strip became worn and the blade would get off into a groove. Once I replaced the strip, the measure would once again be accurate.

I'm just guessing, but you may have a problem with the guard on your particular saw. Mine has always woked very smoothly. I use my saw frequently, and am very happy with everything about it.

The front cross bar fit absolutely perfectly. The rear cross bar was not a perfect fit. The only way I can describe the fitment is it almost looked as if the rear rail was warped. One screw hole on each end of the bar was about a quarter inch bent in. When you put the screw through the cross bar and then the existing rail, the "warped fitment" is pulled out and sits flush. It's odd that it would lay that way initially, but the problem is corrected once the the screws are in place.

Every Onan is not a 90degree, mine is straight. I suggest cutting off the 90 degree and retro fitting pieces of exhaust pipe fron an auto parts store. If you are talking about the chrome turn down just take it off.

I have had the same problem with the main belt falling off. It appears that the large and small pulleys are not lined up forcing the belt to ride on the edge of the large pulley nearest the blades. There seems to be no way to align the pulleys. Next stop is the dealer.

I will let you know in 41 years for sure, but odds are the rubber will have degraded by then. Have you considered investing in a tech stock instead of a rear wiper for potential return on investment after all that time? PS. It seems that for me the problem was in the arm that attaches to, not a bad blade. It still misses for most of the sweep. It isn't being held against the glass firmly enough.

I had a similar problem on my Bosch which resulted in me removing the laser from my saw and going back to the stock washer and bolt. Sorry I don't have a better answer; I was not happy with the blade stalling in the middle of cuts and didn't take time to chase the issue.

Like a dream - IF... the wheels have flat spots between the rims that have those measurements. I.e., if you measured the O.D. on the raised rims, the tires may ride up just a bit. That means you have to correctly center the blade. Otherwise, enjoy! I love my new tires - the saw even runs quieter! Good Luck.

I'm not a pro, just a homeowner. I suspect that the bottom is not tipped back enough, meaning that the bottom (or top, for that matter) is lower inside the window than outside the window. Perhaps the metal right angles that are supposed to be screwed into the window frame have bent.

On my 2013 CRV, both the 26 and 16 inch blades do NOT make contact all the way across, due to the high curvature of the windshield. The original wiper blades for this car have two flexible joints that provide enough pressure to keep the blade slush against the windshield.

Hi, so I bought this for my son car, and it really does not fit the contour of the back window. If you don't mind replacing the tape every 3 months then this is for you.. Looks good on the car.

Not normal, I never had a problem with mine. First thing I would do is check the blade to make sure it is the right size and check for warps
