The front wipers on the 2015 Chevy Traverse typically use two different blade lengths: 26 inches on the driver’s side and 24 inches on the passenger side. The rear wiper is an 11-inch blade. These sizes are designed to match the vehicle’s wide windshield and rear window for effective clearing in all weather conditions.
Front windshield wiper sizes
Because the Traverse’s windshield is wide and curved, the two front blades are sized differently to optimize sweep and clearance. The following are the sizes commonly listed for the 2015 model in OEM and aftermarket catalogs:
- Driver-side blade: 26 inches
- Passenger-side blade: 24 inches
Using the correct sizes ensures full coverage of the windshield and effective clearing in rain, snow, and spray. If you replace one blade at a time with a mismatched length, you may see streaking or uneven wipe. Confirm compatibility with your specific trim and blade brand if in doubt.
Notes on aftermarket choices
Many aftermarket kits offer 26"/24" front blade pairs or universal fit options. When shopping, look for blades labeled for the 2015 Traverse or for a 26-inch driver and 24-inch passenger fit. Some brands sell a 26"/24" set specifically tailored to GM SUVs.
Rear windshield wiper size
The rear wiper on the 2015 Traverse is a single blade designed to clear the rear hatch window, typically measuring 11 inches. The rear blade mounts similarly to other GM SUVs but can vary by trim or aftermarket options.
- Rear blade: 11 inches
As with the front blades, ensure your replacement blade’s hook or pin attachment matches your wiper arm. If your vehicle has a different rear window setup due to aftermarket modifications, verify the correct size before purchase.
Rear wiper mounting and replacement tips
To replace the rear blade, lift the wiper arm, release the retaining mechanism per the blade’s instructions, and slide on the new blade. If your rear window uses a different mounting, consult the blade packaging or vehicle manual for the exact installation steps.
Summary
For a 2015 Chevy Traverse, plan to use 26-inch driver-side and 24-inch passenger-side front blades, plus an 11-inch rear blade. Always verify exact sizes on your specific vehicle and trim, and confirm compatibility with the brand you choose, as some aftermarket options may use slightly different mounting styles.
