EliB Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 Hi. Was in a drive thru carwash and my rear wiper came flying off. I can take the car in to the dealership or install a new rear wiper arm myself Found this on Amazon for the Ford Edge, and works for the Edge till 2020 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CXHQLQ8?pf_rd_r=Q5YY35ZZVG40M9MA6XYN&pf_rd_p=5ae2c7f8-e0c6-4f35-9071-dc3240e894a8 should this be fine for the Lincoln Nautilus or do you recommend going to the dealership? thank you Eli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CARR142 Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 That Should be fine; call dealer parts dept. for a price, go with whatever is convenient for you, and ask them to match the Amazon price if they want more $ for the part.

enigma-2 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 It should be fine. It simply presses on, screws down and fastened with a nut (the hardest part is actually installing the blade to the arm). This is one case where aftermarket is as good as oem. I had to replace mine and ended up having to cut it off with a dermel tool. What's curious is why it came off in thd first place. (It's bolted on).

enigma-2 Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Mist have gotten caught in the rotary brush. I've noticed that my local car wash puts a plastic sleeve on rear wipers. Must be the reason. When I replaced mine, I used pb blaster and it still refused to budge. I ended up cutting through the wiper arm base with a dremel. Even after splitting the round base in half, I still had to cut through from the back to get the back half off the stem. If you have the same problem, I'd try a great puller (I didn't have one).
