ah, right.... thanks
hopefully mine, as a 2023 model would not be affected
I suspect the loose nut would more likely cause the wiper arm to slip or even fall off.....

You can check idle position of wipers arms as per pic I attached ealier, it will be clear if its needs to be regulated or not.

I checked mine, and it was 2cm higher on passenger side and 1cm higher on drivers side compared to measurement on that pic fro LHD (passenger 35mm and driver 57mm from windscreen lower edge).
I have just regulated it by myself. A bit difficult to stay in proper position while tightening... but ok.
