Its plastic construction balances strength and corrosion resistance, while the matte black finish maintains a factory appearance. The arc-shaped design and articulated joint allow the wiper blade to maintain consistent contact with the rear windshield, improving visibility in wet conditions. The spline attachment method ensures a secure fit to the wiper motor shaft, and the snap-in wiper end type allows for straightforward blade installation without adapters. This wiper arm does not include the wiper blade itself, so replacement blades must be purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Problem Resolution\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement for damaged or bent rear wiper arms on Volkswagen Atlas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores proper wiping angle and pressure for clear rear visibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEliminates issues with loose or slipping wiper arms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses wear-related degradation of original plastic components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves rear window clearing performance during rain or snow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of the Dorman 42358 wiper arm requires removal of the existing arm by unscrewing or pulling off the spline connection.
