Wiper blades OEM Mazda or OEM Volvo

Use iso alcohol on a microfiber towel, wipe the windscreen/back window and the wiper blades with it, then take off the excess and dry with another one.

Then use a glass cleaner+fresh microfiber to clean the windscreen, and wipe the wiper blades(all 3).

I have started buying my wipers from the dealership. Fist they are actually cheaper then most of the brands at the corner car store. Secondly, they work great. My Mazda6 blades are simply the best.

The oem volvo ones are all I've found, I just settled on those for my s90 cuz the guys at auto zone gave up trying everything that claimed it would fit...

Replaced the blades and nothing changed. Got through one winter of ridiculous streaking and brought the issue up again with the dealer. They replaced both wipers fully under warranty and in rain the streaking is gone.

The other 4 cars in the family all do better with heavy rain than the CX30 did when I got it. I did figure it out after a while. Step 1 re-bend the wiper arms by hand just a little so they have more firm contact with the glass ( old mechanic trick ), Step 2 Rain X the glass using the wipes not in the washer tank, Step 3 front defroster on cold. This works for me in Florida torrential downpours at 90 degrees, 80% humidity and 1/2 inch per hour rain rate while doing 65-70. Works way better now. I still use auto mode for wipers most of the time, but I do use high for anything over a light rain as they are still a little slow compared to the 2018 Escape, 21 Tahoe or even 87F150. My other Mazda is way better as far as wipers go.

I’ve had the wipers replaced twice in six months and it’s downright dangerous during rainy drives.

This is the single biggest issue I’ve had with them. It makes driving at night in the rain a hazard. It has always smeared right across the driver’s line of sight.

The wipers barely clean and leave a smear. I changed blades and it's the same problem.

Dealer then replaced them and that worked, then started streaking again. It's just a hassle always returning them or going to the dealer.

Wipers on a brand new V90 CC 2024 were bad from the dealership.
