Default Windshield wiper problems

Random question. Can someone post pics of their windshield wipers from inside their GX?

ive got a 2015 and I noticed my wipers are acting kind of weird. I think my wife took the GX through an automatic car wash and they broke the drivers side wiper.

I know some of the plastic cover is broken, but I also don’t remember the wiper being visible when they are off???

Here’s a pic of my wipers.

I have looked on mine, the resting position should be fairly inline with the bottom of windshield, here is a pic for your reference (forgive the junk in garage)

Thanks hzhao! That’s what i thought I remembered as well.

I guess I need to tear it apart to see if there is a way to adjust them back down.

usually theres a spindle that can slip if the blade has resistance when its attempting to move. the arm can be taken off and then replaced at the proper position.
