| Description of the problem | Floppy sun visors 2006 nissan murano. Both sun visors will no longer remain in place. They impair/block sight and are very distracting. This makes it very unsafe to drive as you have to keep fighting with the visors to move them out of the way so you can see. Many, many other murano drivers have the same problem. This is clearly a problem nissan needs to address/recall before major accidents occur because you can't keep both hands on the wheel since you have to keep moving the floppy visor out of the way so you can see. Not being able to have a clear line of sight with a visor constantly in your way is a serious problem. I have tried to find a solution for this problem but nothing seems to work. It is a manufacturing/design malfunction. This problem is just as bad as people driving while on their cell phones. Dangerous. |
