| Description of the problem | Both sun visors on my nissan murano started flopping vertically down. They do not stay up, nor tilted downwards against the windshield. As a result my view gets disturbed while startling me. Have checked with the dealer when getting another repair. They say that it costs $300-$500 each to replace them. No used sun visors are available in the after market as all sun visors tend to go bad. This is a 100% common safety issue with all murano's and very expensive replacement where this should not have happened. I am 51 years old and never experienced this with any cars i have ever had. |
