Wipers miss part of windshield
I've been using Bosch Icon wipers and on all three H2's that I have had the passenger side wiper always misses a part of the windshield in the center. Has anyone else noticed this? Even tried swapping the driver and passenger sides and same thing. Thinking it is the way the windshield is made. Anyones thoughts?

Re: Wipers miss part of windshield
My H2 (1-year old with original wiper blades) does and has always done the same thing.
It doesn't wipe strongly around the center of the windshield. That's the first place where the ice or any salt residue accumulates.

Same here, returned them. I bought "Trilpe Edge" silicone wipers at Walmart, work very well too.

Yeah, don't look out the passenger side's window.... 
Seriously, I don't know why but I've replaced more wiper blades on my two H2's than I have all the other cars put together....
I swear I change blades every 3-4 months, I don't get it.
