| Description of the problem | I hit a minor bump in the road, the sun visor suddenly dropped down in front of my face - blocking the view of the road. I pushed it back up into its normal "resting" location. Upon hitting another bump in the road it swung down again in front of my face. This is the second sun visor in this vehicle to do this. This one started failing around 10/1/2016, and is still doing so. |
