It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, engineered by Dorman to fit and work like the original arm on the specified vehicles.

The wiper arm holds the blade against the rear glass with spring tension and carries it through its sweep as the wiper motor turns the pivot. If you are shopping for a 2012-2018 Ford Focus wiper arm for the rear glass, this unit is intended to take the place of the factory piece.
