Exclamation Free wiper blades from Ford

In the owners manual (2007-2008) it reads that in the first 12 months/unlimited mileage Ford will replace the wiper blades free of charge (1 time only)! Just go to your local Ford dealer and tell them your wiper blades are streaking,chirping,or whatever they are doing,and Ford will replace them,FREE! Just in case they don't believe you bring your owners manual with you opened to page 12,I think,to show them!

Good one. That was actually recommended to me by my dealer as we were doing the final delivery inspection.

And if they aren't streaking, chirping, or whatever, then what?

I'm hoping you're mentioning this for people who legitimately need wiper blades before 12,000 miles.

I don't know about you guys but my blades normally don't last much more than 3-5 monthes. I can't stand for the blade to even streak, chirp, or smear across my windshield. Once my blades start acting up off they go

Why would anyone want to replace their blades if nothing is wrong with them?

For the same reason so many folks on here are like "Return your truck to stock before taking it to the dealer with problems under warranty."
