Wonky Windshield Wiper (passenger side)

[LXstatic]

I have a new-to-me 2015 LX570 and am wondering if me wiper arm may be bent. As you can see in the close-up below the drivers side is in a good flat position but my passenger side is sitting up at an angle. Anyone else have this problem or know a solution? I tried to move it down by removing the plastic cap and nut and repositioning it on the post but it didn't look right either. Suggestions please!!

Oh yeah! That little problem took me a whole weekend to figure out. I even completely disassemble all the assembly and motor under the cowl.

On the actual wiper arm, the part that transitions to the single flat piece of metal that also forms the j hook. Bend with your hands, where that flat piece of j hook metal meets the rest of the wiper arm.

It take the smallest amount of bending to make big changes to the angle of the wiper blade itself.

Like when I bought mine used. Someone replaced the wiper blades an of course had to treat it rough and slightly bend the arms. No big deal, super easy to bend them back, nothing is actually compromised and will still last for a decade.

Awesome!! I will give it a whirl this weekend, thanks for the input!!
