Description

Help keep your rear glass clear with the Dorman wiper arm, part number 42891, a rear wiper arm that is a direct-fit replacement for the 2007-2012 Ford Escape and 2007-2011 Mercury Mariner. It links the wiper blade to the rear wiper motor and holds the blade against the rear window glass as it sweeps, which helps maintain your view out the back in rain and snow.

Direct replacement: Dorman designs this arm to fit and work like the original rear arm on the listed applications.
Replaces a worn arm: If spring wear, snow damage or metal fatigue has weakened your original arm, this rear arm takes its place.
Durable construction: Built from quality materials for dependable everyday performance.
Trustworthy quality: Supported by a U.S.-based team of product experts and more than a century of automotive experience.

A wiper arm relies on spring tension to press the blade evenly against the glass. As that tension fades, or if the arm is bent, the blade can lift, chatter or leave streaks across the rear window. If the arm is the cause, replacing it with the 42891 addresses the problem. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine and trim details.
