| Description of the problem | After about 1 week of having the driver's side sun visor becoming increasingly weak, and unable to be completely tucked in the forward position (toward windshield), the visor joint completely failed today, resulting in the visor blocking vision from the drivers seat. This resulted in having to hold the visor up, in order to make the drive home from work (~40 minutes). This incident happened today, and no repairs have been attempted yet. |
