When your windshield wiper position is incorrectly calibrated, the blades will come to a stop in the wrong orientation, such as in the middle of the windshield. Your wipers may need resetting due to loosening up over time, or being forced out of position when an abnormal amount of stress was placed on the wipers, such. The rear wiper is easy to replace. Just remove the plastic trims in the tailgate and you'll see the motor clearly. It's just a couple of torx screws in the main part and the rest around the top just pull off. If it breaks,let someone else fix it.

The rear wiper arm is part of the collar that you are referring to. The arm and collar are made and molded together. Once you remove the retainer nut you can use a small puller to grab the arm and press in the center of motor shaft to remove the wiper arm. Sometimes you can wiggle the arm loose without a puller but not always.
