The contact owns a 2024 Chevrolet Trax. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for the windshield wiper blades to be replaced.

Wipers from the dealer are on back order in some cases and in the cases that they do have they they are trash wipers streaks and smears that just block visibility in snow and heavy rain additionally the arm attachment is completely different than any wiper attachment so you cannot get wipers from any auto part stores

There are NO wiper blades available for the 2025 Chevy Trax. It utilizes a unique and propertiary wiper arm that accepts no brand of commercially available wiper blades and the OEM Wiper Blades have been "Sold Out" as long as the vehicle has been available. I've been reduced to using a wiper blade sharpener and universal wiper blade refills just to maintain basic visibility in rainy conditions.

OEM windshield wipers are failing after only 7000 miles of light use. Wipers smear the water across windshield making visibility extremely poor. There are zero compatible aftermarket wipers that fit the wiper arm. I have visited 3 auto parts stores and none fit. OEM replacements from dealerships are on long back order. I either have to try to use wipers that may fly off during use because the proprietary wiper arm design isn’t compatible with any aftermarket wipers or wait months for another set of poor quality OEM wipers.

Since purchasing the car brand new, the wipers have stopped working mid snowstorm, one time in March and another in April here in Colorado. I have had to take the vehicle in 2x to the dealership and waste hours of my time.
