My windshield wipers have been really squeaky and leave streaks behind when I use them. How do you remove and replace windshield wipers?

- Once you’ve purchased the proper size wipers, turn on your windshield wipers until they reach the center of your windshield.
- Pull the wipers away from your windshield and press the tab beneath where the wiper meets the arm to remove the wiper blade.
