Detailed Description

Cardone 40-10022 is a remanufactured windshield wiper motor for front applications on 2009-2012 Chevrolet Malibu, 2009-2010 Pontiac G6, and 2009 Saturn Aura. It is built to restore OE-style wiper operation with a focus on fit, parking accuracy, and dependable motor output. This part cross-references Chevrolet/Pontiac/Saturn OE number 25895883 for the same application.

The remanufacturing process is designed to recover usable core materials while reducing raw material and energy demand versus producing a new part. For buyers searching for a 2009-2012 Chevrolet Malibu windshield wiper motor, a 2009-2010 Pontiac G6 front wiper motor, or a 2009 Saturn Aura windshield wiper motor, this unit provides a direct replacement path with OE-based testing.

Common Problems It Can Help Solve

• Front wipers stop working or move inconsistently
• Wipers park in the wrong position on the windshield
• Slow, weak, or intermittent wiper motor operation
• Noisy or worn motor operation from internal wear
• Electrical failure related to worn bearings, solder joints, or motor components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s original motor configuration before installation, especially on applications with washer pump compatibility concerns. If the wipers do not park correctly after installation and the vehicle does not use hidden wiper blades, check crank arm position on the motor shaft and reset it to the proper park angle using a vehicle-specific service procedure. If the original issue involved both the washer pump and the wiper motor, bench test both components before replacing either one.

For moisture-sensitive systems, confirm whether the vehicle uses a rain sensor mounted inside the windshield near the rearview mirror. The sensor sends rainfall input to the control module, which then adjusts wiper motor speed.
