'04 Sedan Passenger Wiper Issue

I love this car but I'm wondering if anyone else finds it annoying that the passenger side wiper stops right in the driver's sight line before reversing / returning to rest. On misty days this leaves a line of drops right down the middle of the driver's view. RainX helps , but why bring the wiper that far to the left?

I haven't noticed this problem with my car, matter of fact I have been impressed with their performance so far. How old are your blades. I replace blades every fall with OEM blades on all my vehicles, which I will replace on this car next fall.

Haven't noticed that problem either. Like Gee35x, I've also had to replace my blades.

It's not a blade issue really; I'm wondering why the passenger side wiper arm assembly has to swing all the way over in front of the driver. On most cars the passenger wiper's swing to the left stops in the middle of the windshield. In light rain where the need for wipers is intermittent, it kind of affects visibility. I'm probably being too picky trying to find something NOT to like on this car!!

Out here on the rainy west coast I change the blades 1/year and always use Rain-x plus washer fliud. Once the Rain-X has been used long enough to be effective the rain just runs off the windshield. I recently had the windshield replaced (first stone from a truck = 10" crack), it took about a month for the Rain-X to be effective again.

The passenger side blade stop right in the middle of my sight and makes a line that divide my view. I think i should clean those blade and clean my windows.
One other thing is that at the end of the passenger side blade is putting pressure on the window. Its making a lot of lines on the window while it "try" to wipe.
