Wiper lifting off at speed 97Q45

[bullittandy]

The driver's side wiper lifts off at speeds greater than 65MPH. This happens on the "return stroke" and has done it with two types of wiper blades. Anybody else have this problem?

Yeah I did. Just slow down.

Check the nuts on the wiper arm connecting to the motors. Make sure they are all the way down meaning that they are secure.

Might be the spring in the arm that's weak. Try changing it. Also, there are many wiper arms (the piece that the blade is installed in) that have some sort of "wing" on them so the faster you go, the more they're forced down onto the glass. Might want to consider one of those.
