............nowt to do with the blade (GM or otherwise).
The arm and spring are the culprits here.
You need a new arm and spring to put the tension back and hold the blade down on the glass. I only use GM blades on the rear wiper
I replaced mine Oct 07 and it no longer holds the blade flat in the entire 'sweep' of the wiper. It misses the top of the glass on my car.... Cry
