| Description of the problem | 2007 hyundai sonata driver side sun visor keeps falling into my field of view. Every few seconds. All day long. It is a distraction and falls directly in front of my face. I have found hundreds of posts on the internet about this problem. I can't figure out a way to keep it from falling into my field of view without resorting to duct tape. I am constantly pushing it up,down, sideways. I might as well be texting. Dealer acknowledged that it was a very common problem and offered to fix it for 135. 00. Same bad visor with bad design. |
