2013 Toyota AVALON Visibility Wiper Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1715989
Internal NHTSA #	11387022
Manufacurer	Toyota Motor Corporation
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	AVALON
Model Year	2013
File date	04/08/20
Component	VISIBILITY/WIPER
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The rear sun shade which extends and retracts to cover the back window of my avalon has a fault which causes it to get stuck in the extended position, covering the rear window. This drastically reduces the visibility out the rear window and there is no obvious or simple fix for the issue. I have found online that many people are having a similar problem. Before the shade got stuck, it would randomly extend or retract during hot days, which seems to be due to a faulty relay. This is clearly a poor design which presents a safety hazard to the driver and anyone behind the vehicle while backing up.
