 Description of the problem2007 hyundai sonata sunvisor 1. Around june 25th, the passenger side sunvisor started falling down on its own, and not staying in the closed position. Then, the driver side started doing the same thing. 2. At first, i could push it back up, and it would remain up, however after a few weeks, it would not stay up at all. As soon as i would push it back up, it would fall back down. The consequences of this were as follows: when it falls down, it obstructs my line of vision. As you can imagine, the sunvisor suddenly dropping down while going 70mph is not a very safe act. This is a potential safety issue, and should be recalled asap. 3. Nothing has been done so far, according to hyundai, there is a complaint for this problem, but it is considered a tsb, or technical service bulletin. A tsb is only covered during the warranty period, and since my vehicle is out of warranty, i am out of luck. I, as well as many others feel this is a safety hazard, and should be considered a recall, not a tsb. It is my understanding that in the case that a problem is safety related, a recall is put out for it. I feel that hyundai has "masked" this problem as a tsb so they can get out of fixing all these peoples visors. I request that nhtsa look into this matter.
