Just got a 2025 CRV EX-L last week. Is it weird that the windshield wiper doesn’t go all the way to the edge of the window? It leaves a pretty wide strip of unwiped window

Funny that I am reading this right now… I was thinking the same thing driving in My 25 HRV in the snow today. My Civic was the same too… Looks like they all miss that much of the windshield.

Interesting, mine seems to over swing, taps the a pillar.

Does yours make a noise as it overswings?

Just when the blade taps the pillar.

Check the size recommended in the manual. If your blade is tapping the pillar, highly likely it is the wrong size.

That would be weird, it’s the factory blade. I’ll check though!

I just noticed this on mine today too when all the snow built up :confused:.

Yes & the fact that it only has 2 wiper speeds.

Use RainX it’s so much better. Wipe it on your windshield every two weeks.

If your RainX is only lasting two weeks, you are using rubbing alcohol for washer fluid. RainX should last a 2-3 months minimum.

I thought all cars were like this. My Civic was similar so I thought it was normal?

52

I posted something similar to this just recently. It’s ridiculous, because the defroster doesn’t really hit this area well either. I don’t know who designed this!

It can be adjusted, easy!

Has anyone found the best wiper blade for the 2024+ yet?

I don’t know but I got some expensive Bosch wipers and they’re terrible.

And they fit without having to cut anything?

@Fitz
Nope I had to clip something off of the adapter for them to fit. But the stock wipers were complete shit. These Bosch wipers are just shit. So an improvement.

Hahaha ya I can’t believe how bad the stock ones are. Not sure what to do as there doesn’t seem to be any solution to this.

I don’t think it’s normal.

Needs a readjustment.

Take it out and reposition it at an auto glass shop. Could do it for you.
