Bosch Driver's Side Wiper Doesn't Fit Flush

Hey All,

Has anyone else had an issue with Bosch Icon driver's side wiper not fitting flush?

I bought a new Bosch Evolution and it leaves a 6" x 8" blob of water, unwiped, directly in my field of vision. I assumed a few weeks on the windscreen and it would flatten out. No dice.

I talked to Bosch and they were very helpful and gracious (Thank you @BoschAutoParts, #BoschAutoParts for all the help! Hopefully this thank you will show in your social media sweep) and sent me a brand new Bosch Icon. It has a slightly different and better connection system, and aside from that, the wipers seem identical and very well made.

And it leaves almost the exact same 6" x 8" blob in the same place.

Any thoughts? Could the spring be too weak to hold it in place? Any thoughts on what will work? OEM? Rainex? Another Bosch?
