The invention starts with a windshield wiper device (10), in particular for a motor vehicle, with at least one drive element (16) that can be fastened to the vehicle body (26) and that has a driven shaft (28) and at least two axially rigid fastening elements (22), which engage in receiving openings (24) on the vehicle body (26) and are provided with at least one damping element (76, 90, 96) for damping mechanical vibrations. It is proposed that the damping elements (76, 90, 96) are fastening blocks made of a rubber-elastic material and are fastened to the drive element (16), that said damping elements are provided with slots (78) and are arranged in such a manner that they can be inserted in a first assembly direction (64) in the receiving openings (24) and prompted by a movement in a second assembly direction (32) transverse to the first direction the damping elements reach across the first edge (88) of the receiving opening (24) with a slot (78), and that a locking element (30, 52, 66, 80, 92, 98) secures the final position in the second assembly direction (32).
