Default REALLY stupid question.
My rear wiper does not stick to my window. Would it be the stupid spring on it that has gotten streached out? Please help cuz I would like to see out my rear window when it snows and junk.

Could be the spring or it could be the pivots are frozen. Get some spray lube on the pivots and see if you can work it loose.
