What Size Wiper Blades Does Your Subaru Need?
In a place like Ottawa, where weather can change in a blink—icy mornings in April, slushy roads in March, and snowstorms by November—keeping your windshield clear isn’t just about convenience. It’s a safety essential. If you’re driving a Subaru, especially one that handles winter roads as well as it tackles weekend getaways, you’ll want to make sure your wiper blades are always up to the job.
Below is a breakdown of wiper blade sizes for each Subaru model. All you’ll need is a fresh set of blades and a few minutes to swap them out. Pro tip: Always check your owner’s manual for exact sizing or give us a call at (613) 745-9191 to book your service appointment if you’re unsure.

When Should You Replace Your Wiper Blades?
According to Subaru Canada, wiper blades should be checked regularly and replaced at least once a year—or sooner if you notice streaking, skipping, or noise. In cities like Ottawa where snow, freezing rain, and road salt are constant winter companions, changing them out every 6–9 months can help keep visibility sharp and your driving experience safer
