| Description of the problem | While driving on the highway the driver side visor fell out of the ceiling as if the wires were cut in half in the hole that held the visor in place. I did not have an accident due to the sudden event but i have barely been able to see while driving early in the mornings or late in the evenings when the sun is low in the sky and shining directly through the window. |
