The rear wiper on our 2001 MDX has been making a lot of clatter noise when operating. Its real smooth and quiet on the upwards swipe, but on the downward swipe the blade struggles against the glass, making a chattering sound of the rubber struggling against the glass. It sounds terrible.
Worse when it is misty... not quite as bad in a heavy downpour.
The rubber blade appears to be in good condition. There is no metal against glass. just rubber on glass.
The service department says all MDX's do this, and there is nothing they can do. He said that the wind holds the front blades against the window, but in the back the opposite happens, and hence the noise. I find this hard to accept.
We don't have this problem on our mini-van and CRV. Ther rear blades work fine.

HAVE ANY OF YOU HAD THIS PROBLEM?
