DEARBORN, Mich. – Winter is here, but it is never too late to prepare. Motorcraft is launching new winter wiper blades that will help provide excellent visibility under extreme weather conditions, including snow pack, according to the company. With 11 new part numbers, these wiper blades will cover over 94 percent of vehicles on the road.

“Customers expect quality parts at the right price for Ford and Lincoln vehicles,” said John Hanighen, Ford Global Aftermarket Business Director. “These new Motorcraft winter wiper blades are tested and approved for an expansive number of vehicles in even the harshest weather conditions. Ford is dedicated to offering the right part at the right price, and backing those parts with a 6-month limited warranty including labor.” 

New Motorcraft winter wiper blades are now available to order. Hanighen says the new blades are competitively priced and offer excellent performance under most operating conditions. The new winter wiper blades feature:
  • Symmetric base connector and spoiler design, eliminating the need to reverse adapters on opposed wiper systems

  • Exclusive rubber compound formulated for consistent streak-free wiping
  • Tall squeegee blade design that is optimized to help with extreme winter weather, including snow pack
