Hyundai Sonata Mechanic Problem

My right windshield wiper stopped working.
The mechanic tightened the bolt ... but that only lasted a few days.
What needs to be replaced.

Try tightening the nut some more. The arm may have not been fully seated in the very fine splines on the shaft. If it shifted after it was tightened, that would instantly make it loose again.
