| Description of the problem | First my driver side visor started to give me problems by making a popping sound which didn't last very long. Eventually the visor completely gave out by falling down in my face and my head while driving. I had a hard time keeping it in position and figuring out how i can use the visor to block the sun. I had to rig the visor with a small bungee cord. I was extremely frustrated and embarrassed by the contraption to hold the visor in place and the function of the visor. After months of frustration and embarrassment i took the visor out. Then soon after of removing the visor on the driver side the same thing started to happen on the passenger visor. Talk about being humiliated and upset with toyota. As this was not the only problem i was having with the car for ex. Recent recalls, belts replaced, the cost to have my ignition coils replaced then not to soon after the crank shaft sensor. Expensive!!! I contacted my local toyota dealer to inquire about replacement and cost and possibility of a recall on this after reading how many other 2007 toyota camry owners were experiencing the same exact issue. I had no luck with toyota and have not been able to replace due to costs. I just deal with the sun in my eyes while driving. *kb |
