| Description of the problem | Like everyone else here my 2005 nissan murano sun visor driver's side won't stay up and it flops down. I agree that this is a very serious safety issue. I refuse to pay $500 to have a defect originally from nissan repaired properly. The visor is totally loose and won't stay up nor will it stay put to block the sun since it's so loose that it simply flops straight down. I have resorted to using duck tape to tape it in the up position so it doesn't flop down when i hit a bump traveling down the road at 70+ mph. It's a serious safety issue and i'm mad as *** about it. The passenger side has a similar problem but it's not as bad - probably just due to less usage on the passenger side. |
