| Description of the problem | While driving the drivers side visor would not stay up and would not stay in the folded down position. It was hanging freely blocking a clear view while driving. I was able to get to my destination with the help of my wife holding the visor in the up position. I discovered that my only options for fixing this problem were to spend a good sum of money to have the dealer replace it or to just take it off. I opted to remove the visor. I feel this is a safety issue that needs to be addressed by toyota. In doing research i have found numerous complaints from all models of toyota that address this same issue. |
