Tip of Passenger Windshield Wiper Does Not Touch Glass

In Model 220 vehicles, the tip of the passenger side windshield wiper blade does not contact the windshield glass in the first few inches of wiper travel. This condition is as designed and intended, to reduce the possibility of fine scratches in the windshield glass from particles of dirt. Do not replace any components for this condition.
