    Smile Weird Windshield Wipers

    Hey, I'll make this short and sweet for you guys. When I use my wipers, regardless of what speed I set it at, the wipers go down about an inch or two, hit the plastic valance, then go up and continue the cycle. It does this every time it cycles, and makes a plasticy "KA-THUNK" sound. After a little bit of driving it gets on my nerves xD. I was just wondering if this is normal? Or maybe they need to be reseated on their bolts? It's getting to the rainy season here in Minnesota. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    I would just try to reseat them and see if that does the trick!
