Windshield wipers on 2007 VW jetta not swiping

Install the arms parallel to the windshield molding approximately 1/2 gap in between molding and wiper.

sounds like they need to be re-adjusted

the linkage to the wiper came apart, remove the cowling at the base of the windshield and check linkage

Wiper motor arm disengaged or slipping on drive shaft.

Wiper arms slipping on splines at pivot point of wiper arm.,,,more likely.

Wipers are held to drive splines with a 10mm nut.

Make sure wipers are in in 'parked' position buy turning on ignition and making sure wiper switch is OFF.

Turn off ignition.

Pry off the black round plastic cover off the arm where it attaches at the splines. ( Drive splines on lower windshield cowl.)

Tighten nut/s.

Adjusting for more or less travel isn't possible , but you can remove the arm off the stem and reposition it slightly to improve windshield coverage... Remember you only need to move it a little bit.

Hi check if the nut is is tight on the wiper handle to the linkage and also check that it did not strip before tightening good luck

go online and buy new front wiper arms, you get them fairly cheep 15$ for one. your old original arm may have had a defect or had just been bent a little some howk, this could be whats causing the streaks.

Sounds like you need two new wiper motors. I beliveve the gearing inside the motors are worn out and now theres alot of play in them. Try wiggling the wipers with you hands and see if you can feel any up or down / side to side movement.
