Description of the problem	Drivers side window visor released & flopped up 7 back in front of drivers face-unable to seat visor as something broke in attachment to pivot pont. Had to drive holding up with one hand as horrible distraction fron road. Tried holding up on return trip back to md-didnt work. Going up nice bridge & facing 30-40 cars coming down towards me-entire visor failed & went directly in front of my face before could grab & get out of my vision. Almost hit another car. Went to dealer & told of safety hazard & was told by dealer owner-not responsible for safety item after warranty expired. Had mech go online to look getting me a new viser. He said-his research revealed widespread drivers visor failures in 2006-2007-& 2008 santfe-elantra & sonnata. In fact one after marker supplier had sold over 400 visors in those years sonatas. Friend at church had same filure except his was "instantaneous & blocked his vision. All other folks i haf talked to say they have never had a visor fail in any car in their lifetime including cars with over 200000 miles. When examining my visor after the trip-the defect is readily obvious-the part holding the visor on the pivot side is made of a very thin plastic or composite. Ive been driving for over 60 years-navy test pilot for over 20 years & sr member of several aviation crshes in the navy & often "little things" are often the cause of crashes. Originallt tried reporting this over phone to nice lady on hot line but obviosly-severity of incident wasnt transmitted forward. It appears the resolution was only filed as a complaint for a data base. The failure was reported as a visability wiper -& a drivers sun viser. Does not wipe. Sooo would like to have some one open this to investigative status before some gets killed. The other gentleman who had this horrible & scary failure are both willing to give sworn testimony as we know this is safety.[xxx].
