Default Broken Wiper Arm.......Help

I was washing my car today and had both wipers in standing position. I completely forgot about them and opened the hood and guess what .......it hit the passenger side wiper and I heard a big cracking noise......there it was I had broken the wiper arm on my brand new 2002 WS6!

So team, pls tell me what should I do? Any idea where I can get a wiper arm cheap? Can I have it done by dealer under warranty? Also I took the bolt off for the wiper arm to take the broken piece off but it does not come out.....what do I have to do to take it out.

I might buy anohter wiper arm or try and glue it with super glue.....but first I gotta take it out.
Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Adnan

Sorry I notice you said arm not blade.Take it to the dealer or better yet call them and ask if they will cover it under warranty.

May want to take another look. It's common to break the windshield before you break the arms.
