No if anything I advise against it. If you run your wiper while the top brush is going the bristles could catch onto your wiper and rip it off, plus it’s unnecessary.
I do not recommend using your wipers in a car wash. However, I use wipers only for the purpose to provide a better view of the wash equipment in operation from inside the car, where sometimes a view from the outside may not be possible.
it swings because its on a pivot to contour to cars as they go though there is nothing wrong with it it only swings because of the pivot but it doesnt "hit a car"
