driving yesterday, when i hit about 45/55mph i noticed my wipers went across but instead of stopping at the edge of the window, the right one actually goes right off the windscreen which is worrying me incase it flies off

anyone any idea's how to fix this?

I think you take the scuttle panel off and there will be the fixing point of the iper arm and you should be able to loosen it and re-align it

yes thats it
fixed with 3 to four screws.
by the way this alignment can sometimes be tricky, very finely adjusted take your time and watch you dont scratch your windsreen or bugger your wipers or anything!
