    My nozzles are plugged and I can't seem to unplug them, so I might be faced with buying new arms, since the nozzles don't come separately (that I know of). I've seen the Dorman replacement parts, but would like to know if they're made in the USA. I can't find the information on any websites. I was just checking to see, so I know whether to buy OEM arms or not.

    Dorman is American made in Portland, TN and Warsaw, KY.

    Are you sure the nozzles are plugged and it isn't a pump issue or a kinked hose? Have you tried blowing air through the nozzles in an attempt to clear them?

    Haven't seen much Dorman say "made in the USA" on it.

    Most of it is China.

    I've disconnected the hoses where they hook to the arms and the spray is extremely strong out the end of the hose. I cannot blow air from the hose at the base of the arm, up through the nozzle.
