In freezing weather, windshield wipers do not make contact with the windshield underneath the center of the wiper blade. this causes water, ice, or snow to build up in a large area of the windshield in the center of the driver's vision. this makes it necessary to pull the car off the road and manually clear the windshield, as activating the windshield washers makes the problem worse. the problem is intermittent, but occurs with no warning, and can begin to occur in the middle of a journey even if it wasn't an issue at the outset. although my current model is a 2008, i had the very same issue with my 2006 model as well. *tr
