Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) 2009 Subaru Outback windshield wipers ice up too easily, necessitating my pulling over and manually removing ice from between the metal parts. Have had a mild winter here and was only a problem in the past during serious winter storms. Dealer could only replace with same design. The 2010 Subaru all have redesigned wiper blades that are covered to prevent the problem. These blades do not fit my model. A call to 800-subaru3, [xxx] said Subaru has no plans to change the wiper blades on the 2009 model. Present design is dangerous here in northern Ohio.
