It could be that your wiper arms have stripped at the pivot. I'd rec that you remove the wiper arms from the pivots, and see if you can find damage. The pivots each have a key way for aligning the wiper arm. Both the pivot and the wiper arm also have grooves that line up to keep the arm in place.
You should see a small, square latch at the base of the wiper arm. Pull that up towards the wiper blade to un-latch the wiper arm. You may have to push down slightly on the mount to relieve tension from the spring in the arm.
