| Description of the problem | Driver side sun visor broke and will not stay in the stored position, therefore it hangs in my view when driving. I have tried to secure with velco for the time being, but it does not hold. The passanger sun visor has also broke and will not stay in the stored position and therefore blocks my view at stop signs and while looking in the passanger mirror when changing lanes |
