- Removes debris and water from the rear windshield for greater visibility

Your Nissan's Back Glass Wiper Arm (Rear) helps to get rid of moisture, dirt, residue, and any other unwanted materials from your Nissan's rear windshield. When working, it shifts across the window to give you the clear visibility you need to see hazards and other vehicles behind you.
However, the rubber on the wiper arm can become dried out or start to weaken and fall apart when exposed to the elements, especially in colder, warmer, or drier regions. And when your Back Glass Wiper Arm (Rear) is no longer functioning properly, you may notice that the Back Glass Wiper Arm (Rear) is skipping over spots on your windshield or not clearing water and other substances effectively. You may even notice scratching sounds coming from the rear whenever it is engaged.
If you wait too long before the replacement of your faulty Back Glass Wiper Arm (Rear), the material on the wiper can become shredded and break apart completely. Should this happen, the windshield will likely become scratched as the hard plastic or metal of your Back Glass Wiper Arm (Rear) repeatedly scratches the glass. If your Nissan's Back Glass Wiper Arm (Rear) isn't wiping your back windshield correctly, is damaged, or making screeching sounds, it's likely time for a new OEM wiper.
Thankfully, putting on a new wiper arm at home is a fairly simple task, but it can be a bit more complicated than installing your windshield wipers in the front. Before installing a new one, you'll need a replacement Back Glass Wiper Arm (Rear), a ratchet or socket set, as well as a flat blade screwdriver.
Read your car owner's manual to learn the steps most applicable to your vehicle. If you'd rather have the replacement done by an expert technician, stop by your nearest accredited Nissan service location.
