| Description of the problem | While driving on a major interstate, with my visor pushed forward toward the windshield to block the sun, the driver's side visor falls into my line of vision. This causes me to swerve while entering a curve and just miss another vehicle. I quickly push up the visor and to my dismay, it will not stay upright; neither upright towards the windshield nor upright towards the ceiling. The dealership states this is not a recall and is not covered under the warranty. I have looked at multiple threads and spoken with multiple friends who have all had this same issue with the 1st generation nissan muranos (2003-2008). This is a safety issue and both driver's side and passenger's side visors should be recalled and replaced before someone gets hurt! |
