Don’t Let Worn Wipers Ruin a Summer Drive

In North Texas, summer storms can pop up out of nowhere, and when they do, clear vision is everything.

If your windshield wipers are worn out, streaking, or squeaking, they might not do their job—and that can be dangerous. Windshield wipers are extremely important for your teen during the 100 Deadliest Days of Summer.

Good wipers help you see the road clearly during heavy rain, but they also come in handy for clearing dust, bugs, and even pollen. In Texas, summer heat can dry out the rubber on your wiper blades fast, causing them to crack or tear.

If you notice your wipers skipping across the glass or leaving behind streaks, it’s time for a new set. Washer fluid is important too. Running out can leave your windshield dirty and tough to see through, especially during long drives or road trips.

Before your next summer outing, take a quick look at your wipers and test your washer spray. If you’re unsure, we’re happy to check them for you.
