possibly the wiper arm has loosened from the splined shaft.

Find the wiper arm and follow it to where it attatches ( other end from the wiper blade ). Lift the cover and see a bolt head underneath which is probably a 12mm and also probably loose.

Car vibrating @ 70ish normally wheel balance / bent drive shaft if you've hit kerb etc - buckled wheel (unlikely) or a tyre which has gone out of shape or developed an 'egg' where it's ready to blow.

Either way, i would get down to somwhere like National Tyre & Exhaust or Quickfit for a free check.

Better safe than sorry etc.

Good luck & keep us posted.
