Pontiac Grand Am windshield wiper arms disconnected issue on Pontiac Grand Am

Some Pontiac Grand Am owners report experiencing issues with their windshield wiper arms, such as the driver side wiper not moving properly due to the wiper mechanism arm falling off, often caused by a broken plastic bushing in the wiper linkage that may necessitate a complete wiper assembly replacement. Additionally, some owners find that loose wiper arms at the pivot points can lead to malfunction, which can be resolved by tightening the nuts securing the arms after removing the plastic caps. Bent, rusted, or damaged wiper arms may also require replacement to ensure proper contact with the windshield. In cases where the motor is suspected to be faulty, troubleshooting with a test light is recommended for further diagnosis. Furthermore, replacing worn bushings with a new bushing kit may be necessary to resolve specific wiper arm issues. Addressing these problems promptly can help maintain the functionality of the windshield wipers on the Pontiac Grand Am.
