| Description of the problem | While driving, driver's side visor became disconnected from its attachment point. This detachment caused the visor to dangle by wires and the inside clip which resulted in completely blocking the driver's forward vision. Reinserting the visor is a temporary fix as it falls out randomly from 5 seconds to a couple days after reinserting. Similar thing happened to the passenger side visor a year earlier. |
