We have a 2014 Georgetown 270S. Have tried many different brands of windshield wipers and none will cover the curve in the windshield (including the original factory installed blades). This is a serious problem because the non-cleared area is directly in front of the driver. Has anyone experienced (and solved) this problem?
Have you tried adjusting the wiper arm location (couple splines) on the drive. Remove the nut and reposition the wiper arm. My 2012 GT378 uses 28" blades from Walmart (rain-X expert fit conventional C-28-4) that are universal for "J" hook/pin/bayonet types.
Have you tried different styles of blades? I’m not talking about brands, but styles. The only style of blade that works perfectly on my 2015 and 2016 Chevy 3500s is the “Beam” style blades. No brand of the conventional type blades works well for these trucks.

Rain X. Buy some Rain X and apply it to your windshield. The rain will run right off if applied correctly.
But it at any auto parts or Walmart.
+1 on Rain X. While this isn't a direct solution for your wiper problem, so could be dismissed as a possible solution, it is a direct solution for the real problem - water on the windshield. I used to be a doubter but now I know - this stuff really works.
You might want to check your wiper arms. They lose spring tension with such long and heavy blades. We changed ours not long after we got it used, and now, after two years of moderate use, they are ready to be changed with the next set of blades.

As I understand your problem, the wiper blade is not your problem, but the length of travel is. Like someone else suggested, remove the arm and blade, reposition it a few splines in the direction you want it to cover. May take several attempts to get the results you want.
