I’ve had multiple dangerous visibility issues due to the design of the wipers & having the washer fluid mounted onto the wipers rather than the hood of the car. Washer fluid comes out on the left side of the drivers’ side wiper as it reaches the top of the windshield and just gets blown off the left edge.

Height: 5-7 - 5-8 whether condition: moderate rain Road: driving highway I was driving between 50 - 57 MPH on the highway with the wiper on. The water from the front windshield traversed back to both sides of the Driver & passenger front windows in a strong gulf of stream, that blocked the visibility of both sides of the front drive & passenger windows.

Windshield wipers do not fully clean/clear driver side of windshield. This is a MAJOR safety risk as wet roads can impair driver vision from salt and sand trucks. Windshield wiper fluid does not clean/clear drivers vision from this and creates a direct block of vision of the road.

The wiper blades on the 2022 Civic are prone to fail in cold temperatures. They fail to properly clear the windshields and effectively prevent the driver from being able to see. To me, it's an obvious design defect that causes the wiper blades to lift away from sections of the windshield.

I was driving down the highway and I got sprayed by a truck, but the wiper would only clear a small portion of the windshield. There were 2 large pockets on the driver and passenger side that the wiper didn't even touch. This issue only occurs in winter.
