| Description of the problem | I was driving home on ca highway 80 west from work when suddenly, my driver side visor dropped down in front of my windshield. I am disappointed with this toyota part because it has been an issue since i purchased this model in 2009. This visor does not seem to return to it's up position completely since 2009. Now, in 2013, this visor has completely failed to return to it's upright position and can obstruct my view when i drive. I wish toyota would replace this visor since it is a "safety" issue when a part can obstruct the driver's side. I am also part of a carpool for my child and this will definitely be an issue when i drive several kids in my car. |
