| Description of the problem | I have a 2007 toyota camry. The driver side visor just hangs and obstructs the view. The internal bracket that holds it up gave out. I have been told by my mechanic that it is a design flaw. This is a serious safety issue. Toyota refuses to replace the visor because i am told this things wear out. I tend to believe it was engineered this way on purpose to make the customer buy replacement parts. Can you look into it. Hundreds of other people have the same problem. |
