Combination problem the wipers are not commonly available outside of the dealer. They have a fitter that is not compatible with the usual supply of replacements. There are no dealers in the columbia gorge. A daughter had one of her wipers ice up and fall off while traversing the columbia gorge one snowy eve. She replaced it at a roadside service station. This would not be possible if it had happened with this Mercedes. Having a bad wiper blade is a real safety issue with me.
