Default Wiper arm

For whatever reason, my driver side wiper arm decided to stick up today while driving.

You can freely move it back to rest, but it will rotate and run into the passenger side one.


Any fixes or am I SOL?

take the bolt off the wiper arm, then take a pliers or channel lock and put it on the shaft that the wiper bolts to and chew up the metal a little bit with it, make some nice burs (aka F%@K it up a little) with the pliers. and then put the arm back on (if needed put a washer on top of the arm before the nut, sometimes needed, other times not needed)
