HELPFUL INFO
WIPERS - In the 2001 National Car Care Month vehicle check lanes, 21 percent of participants had wipers that smeared, streaked or chattered across their windshields. Although climates vary, wipers generally need replacing every six months. Be sure the windshield washers are working properly, too, and keep the reservoir filled with solvent.
