2019 Mitsubishi Mirage: Windshield Wipers

 

**** 

Relevant Material: 

•  “In Canada, environmental factors such as adverse weather contributed to 18–20% of all fatal vehicle accidents in a recent year, according to Transport Canada.
• The U.S. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) reports that about 21% of all accidents in the United States are weather-related.
• The European Automotive Insurers Association found that poor visibility is a factor in approximately 20% of all car accidents.
• An Australian driver training organization noted that poor visibility can increase the risk of a crash by 30% or more.
• Studies have shown that collision risk can increase by 50 to 100% during precipitation. 

The link between malfunctioning wipers and accidents 

Poor visibility is a major factor in weather-related accidents, and malfunctioning wiper systems are a major cause of impaired visibility. This can happen in several ways: 

• Worn-out blades: Blades that streak, smear, or miss sections of the windshield leave a driver's view obstructed, even during light precipitation. A survey in the U.S. revealed that as many as one in five vehicles had deficient wipers that could seriously impair a driver's vision.
• Motor or arm failure: If a wiper arm or the motor that controls it fails, drivers can lose all visibility and have no way to clear the windshield.
• Washer system failure: Without sufficient washer fluid, wipers cannot effectively clear dirt, road grime, or insects, further reducing visibility. 

The significance of maintaining wipers

Though often overlooked, windshield wipers are a critical safety component. Because 90% of all driving decisions are based on vision, their proper function is directly tied to a driver's ability to react to road hazards. Drivers who neglect to replace worn-out wiper blades are putting themselves at a higher risk of an accident. 

Taking action

To ensure safety during adverse weather conditions, it is important to regularly check and maintain your wiper blades.

• Inspect monthly: Look for signs of wear, such as streaks, chattering, or split rubber, and replace the blades every 6 to 12 months.
• Check washer fluid: Keep the reservoir filled with an appropriate seasonal washer fluid.
• Pre-flight check: Before driving, particularly in winter, clear heavy snow or ice from your windshield to prevent damage to the wiper system “ (Google)
