Like others have said in their reviews, I cannot trust this wiper blade. I was driving through rain in rural Virginia and the rubber blade began sliding out of the rest of the wiper. Luckily, I was able to pull over and slide it back into place. It happened again about half an hour later. Had the blade completely slid out, I would have been unable to drive since it was raining.
Once I got to my destination, I inspected the wiper more closely. It looks like there's a small piece of plastic that holds it in place. But obviously it's not enough since this problem has happened to me twice and other reviewers as well.
Otherwise, the performance and installation of this blade is excellent. But after this experience of having the blade nearly slide out, I no longer can trust these blades. I would strongly recommend you purchase something different.
