Description of the problem	Driving in heavy traffic at 65-70mph the sun visor just dropped down blocking my vision. There was no immediate fix as being on the road you can't pull over and just do something with it. I therefore had to hold the visor in place for several miles. Once i was able to pull over there was still no fix, holding the visor in place and driving with one hand in heavy traffic is a hazard for myself and others on the road. I drove for several days like this trying everything from paper in the visor to electrical tape i had purchased hoping to hold it up. Nothing worked. When heading back from nevada i decided to use a rubber band to criss cross it and secure it to the handle you use to get into the car. Now this was nice except i was heading east and every morning when i left my hotel i could not put the visor down driving into the blinding sun. The sun visor is definitely a safety hazard and should be addressed by subaru, not just the fact you have to replace with no recourse.
