It was kind of spitting snow so I needed the wipers off and on. Aggravating, if I hadn't needed them I could have just pushed then away from the windshield... My 190D stranded me with a bad wheel bearing twice, once on each side. No warning, one even shot off the cap never to be found... On the plus side that's when I learned to replace wheel bearings .
