$75 Wiper Blade Replacement now available from Tesla shop

[ABILISK]

Not bad at all since the sexy car wipers are $50 for the pair. I expected this one to be much more.

$75 wouldn't be too bad if it lasted longer than a month. My original started streaking quickly. Fingers crossed, ordered. Thanks OP for the update, been waiting for this to show up on the site.

Well, now I know the price .

Someone in a parking lot was joking with me and said:
“Well son, you won’t be getting them wipers in Costco anytime now, will you” .

He also said I need to contact John Deer for the tires.

Wish the CT had Tractor beams instead of a tow hitch and photon torpedos ? for people who call CT “Controversial”

Costco is the only place on a banned list of locations from which to procure wiper blades by my standards. I bought a Michelin branded set for my MS and M3 once and tbey were utter trash that Michelin should have been ashamed to have their name on. So my impression is that the Coatco versions of wipers are lesser quality for mass production. Just my experience and YMMV.

FWIW.

Cheers

I wish SilBlade (silicon wiper blades) made one, those things last years and years!

Not in Phoenix Az they don't the summer finds all your weak rubber on your car then it fails.

Track
Can not see the rubber track
and
If CT use a standard rubber wiper track then you could buy just the rubber.
Low $
If CT is a standard track then any rubber will fit and lets say Two 22" rainX rubber blade should work on CT wiper. Just cut off the excess rubber and track.
Maybe
Two 18" rain X rubber blades from Walmart might work.

2x 22” wiper rubber is too short by 4”

2x 18” wiper rubber is even shorter by 12”

yeah that’s how big the CT wiper is.

I grew up in Phoenix.

I have a pair of silicone oven mitts. I think they're rated to 500ºF. Even Phoenix doesn't get that hot, although on a visit a few years ago, it was 116ºF at night.

In mere Maryland (occasional 100ºF days in summer, but occasional ice and frozen snow in winter too), I had a pair of SilBlades last a good 12 years, longer than the baked powder coating on the metal parts.

Even if they only lasted 3 years in Phoenix, they'd be outlasting anything else.

I would have said, "No, I won't need to go to Costco, it will come delivered to my door, at no extra charge."

My six-year-old Model 3 Performance still has the original OEM wipers and they still work great. The six year old Model 3 with 110,000 miles that my wife just traded in still had the original wipers too, No streaking, works great in our rainy climate.

This is one of those times where I comment on your post that's just ridiculous. 6 year old car with original wipers in your locale? Come on. Even with rainx, ceramic wax, this isn't possible on any vehicle. Just be real.

How many people buy $100K+ trucks and really worry about replacing wiper blades?

Nobody is worried, except for the haters. They take anything that is different about the Cybertruck (big ass wiper) and try to make it seem like it must be a problem. However, it works better than I ever thought possible, here it is conquering heavy brush:



Our Model 3 wipers lasted so many years in our PNW climate that I'm not even ordering a spare for the Cybertruck. I mean, it's 7 months new and it wipes rain off. I'll wait until it shows signs of starting to lose effectiveness.

I think I'm more worry about it being out of stock forever. I may have bought one just in case.

Came pretty bent! Hopefully works ok
