What size windshield wipers does my Subaru Forester need?

So, I did something kind of silly this weekend. I was bragging about how offroady my somewhat new Subaru Forester is, and well, let’s just say I need to replace my passenger side windshield wiper. So what size are Subaru Forester windshield wipers?

The correct size of windshield wipers will depend on the model year of your “somewhat new”
Subaru Forester
.
The 2012 and 2013 Forester each has 24” driver’s side, 18” passenger’s side, and 14” rear windshield wipers. All models from 2014 through 2022 have 26” driver’s side, 17” passenger’s side, and 14” rear wipers.
These wiper sizes are universal across all trims, including XT and Wilderness trims. You should also check with the manufacturer of the wipers to see how they fit to your Forester, and to ensure their sizes aren’t slightly off. Though rare, you may need them an inch longer or shorter with some wipers.
We like to recommend that you take a look at an auto parts chain’s website to confirm the sizes of windshield wipers you can use, even if you don’t plan on shopping on their website. Auto parts stores are invaluable resources of information, and you’ll often find some great deals in the process.
