| Description of the problem | The hinge mechanism that keeps the sun visor in the up position, fails causing the visor to randomly fall while i'm driving. This causes me to be startled & also is a visibility problem. This should be a safety recall! After eventually getting so bad it would not stay up at all & then finding out it would cost $300+ to replace, i'm stuck using a velcro strap attached to drivers side "o-s@&t" bar to keep it up! |
