| Description of the problem | The sun visor on the drivers side of the vehicle no longer stays in the "up" position resting against the roof. The visor hangs at dangerous eye level because the spring mechanism to hold the visor in the resting position against the roof is defective. I've researched this issue online and seen several complaints. This is extremely dangerous situation in traffic when the visor suddenly falls and blocks the sight of the driver. |
