it's an issue with the design that a lot of manufacturers share, including valeo and bosch (icon). just bend (straighten) them carefully.

My old man has those on his TL and they are like a limp noodle so the middle should def wipe. I am wondering if maybe you have a weak spring or arm and its not holding the blade to your windshield hard enough.

I got the armorall ones in december.. they turned out to be defective and recalled them all!

Your best bet is definitely the reflex original... they are prettymuch perfect.

These are the same ones I use. They work great for me. Bend them in and you'll be golden.

I use the same blades on my G and they work fine. way better than oem's. dont forget to remove the clean cover before using.
