| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The sun visors in these vehicles fail, and randomly fall while driving which has nearly caused accidents on the road with me several times. They are poorly made cheap materials. The way the visor falls prevents viewing of the road entirely for several seconds until you can shove it back up, and strap it back into place, which is very unsafe. |
