AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE WIPER BLADE GETS PUSHED BY AIR TRYING TO MOVE AROUND THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT LEAVES THE WINDSHIELD SURFACE ON THE LEFT SIDE AND THEN HANGS UP THERE AND WON'T MOVE UNTIL THE VEHICLE STOPS OR HITS A POTHOLE. CHECKING WITH OTHER OWNERS I FOUND THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE COMMON FOR THE 2008 DAMON ASTORIA MODELS AND MAY BE MORE WIDESPREAD IN THOR PRODUCTS. *TR
