i actually had my wiper blades replaced under warranty at my first oil change. they were streaking, and the service tech said that was a known issue on the factory wiper blades from nissan/infinity, so they replaced them for free.

only now the new ones are streaking again (replaced in Oct last year).

Well having to replace wiper blades after a few months is abnormal, therefore, covered by warranty. In that situation its easy to prove its a manufacturing defect. Especially since it's hard to accelerate wiper blade wear. Tires and clutch are easy to wear out quick depending on driving habits.

Edit: also if wiper blade is streaking, check to see if you have any minor chips in the windshield.
