1999 Acura Windshield wipers?

The wiper on the drivers side runs normally for a minute or two but then it starts to swing over to the side of the glass. Last night it caught on something and I lost the blade (of course in the pouring rain and on interstate), replaced the blade at the first place I got to. Anyway how can I fix it to keep it on the glass and prevent this from happening again? We are using the sizes it calls for and it has done this since we got the car in October.

the wiper is being held with a nut all you need is to unscrew that nut a little bit and move the wiper to the inside towards the middle of the windshield then tighten the screw , check to see if it has been adjusted if not then unscrew the nut and move the wiper a little more until it's adjusted well.

Linkage on rotating arms are worn or check the splines to where the wipers arm is attached to. Splines can be eaten out. The only other thing is to buy smaller wiper blades or fix it!
