Wiper blades.

For some reason finding a set of wipers for the RAM that don't chatter or streak has been an adventure. Original wipers, chattered like crazy on both sides and didn't wipe worth a darn. New OEM Chryco replacments, little better only chattering on one side but wiping action was not the best. Next, set of CTC house brand, good for the first short while then chattered like crazy on the drv side plus performance fell well off in a hurry. Next, set of Michelins from Costco. No chatter from second one, wiping action is excellent so far. While best of bunch to date will post back as to how well they stand up. Seeing similar results with set I put on Kath's HHR a month or so ago. Other cool thing about Mich from Costco, by far the cheapest of the bunch.

I usually throw on on Zaino Z2/Z5 (Depending on what you have available) on the windshield and does wonder to eliminate the chatter and acts like rain X when driving.

We've had great success with the Michelins from Costco also and can't beat the price as Rick said.

I've been using Trico Ice wipers year round, no issues.

I use the Trico NeoForm or Force. Only downside is they chatter with very light rain/snow, but great in the heavier stuff.

I thought chatter/ squawks / sounds is normal once the original factory’s are gone. U guys should ride with me lol that’s ok just drown it out with some roush vroom vroom

Same. Just had to replace the blades on my '16 a couple months ago for first time and went with Bosch blades along with my seasonal coating of RainX seems to work fine.

Same here, I purchased 3 sets on my last order. Paid around $4/each for Bosch blades.
