Finally rained the other day and I went to use my rear wiper. It weirdly went down the car instead of up and across the back window. I looked at other CTs and mine looks like it was installed on the opposite side. I checked the video of the day my car arrived to the dealer and it was definitely the same as today. Was this wiper installed backwards at the factory?

Yes, that’s definitely backwards. I just went and checked mine to make sure.

My guess is cars are shipped with easily stolen/broken items like wiper arms inside to be fitted by the dealer when preparing the car.

Not sure if a check of the wiper is on the checklist for pickup that someone posted a while back but it looks like it should be based on this and the experience from a few others.
