Default Windshield wiper bounce
It hasn't quit raining since I bought my Jeep in April so the wiper's have gotten a good workout. Recently the driver side started doing an odd little bounce at the bottom of the windshield. I can also hear a slight metallic ticking sound when it does the bounce. Anyone else experience this?

Yeah, new blades, and try cleaning the windshield to get any residue off of it.
