Does anybody know about any after market rear windshield wipers for the versa?

Or even any solutions. The one on there sucks, between being a pressure fit (and being able to fall off) and having almost no contact with the window itself, The wiper does absolutly nothing!

Anybody have any ideas of how to keep the rear windshield clear?

Hmmm. Mine works fine. Maybe an adjustment?

Sounds like a defective blade assembly. Mine works as good if not better than the windsheild wipers. The dealer sells the blade/arm for about $40, and see if you can't get it replaced under warranty (if you put up a fight they might budge). There are no aftermarkets available as far as I know, and no adjustments either.

I was driving the V in the torrential rain we had up here in Seattle a couple months back, when it rained 3" in 1 hour... and the rear wiper had absolutely no trouble keeping up.

I'd say take it in and make them fix it under warranty. Unless your dog has been chewing on the blade, there is no reason for it to be doing that.

It stopped working after I put it back on after it fell off when closing the hatch.

I'll take it to a dealership and see what they do since it's a safety hazard.

My windshield wiper became misaligned on my road trip. It was easy to pop back into place and hasn't done it again since. I haven't had any problems as far as keeping the window clear with the wiper. Although I wish there was a spray mist feature rather than the stream they give you. Sometimes it can be had to clear certain spots because you rely on the blade to move the solution around.
